Some photos from Tasmania

My Dad, who has passed his 81st. birthday, decided recently to take his first rib ride, ever.
He has heard me going on about ribs for so long now, he decided to find out what it was all about. He came back absolutely full of it. Another convert I think!
Here are some photos of his outing. It cost Aus$100 (about £45) for a 3-hour fun ride around the Tasman Peninsular in southern Tasmania.
