A lovely Drive

Last Monday we decided to go for a drive, so 4 hours later we arrived home in the dark.

We went along the Tamar River on the western side and first stop was at Blackwall then Clarence Point, and Beauty Point by the time we got to Brady's Lookout it was dark but twilight. 
I took my camera for a change but had my phone, these photos were taken with the camera.
The drive wasn't that far from home but seeing as we diverted here and there, stopped and looked at the view it all took time.
The Tamar River is officially 70km long (43 mile) and despite being named a river, the waterway is a brackish and tidal estuary over its entire length.
There are fish in the river such as Southern Black Bream, Flathead, Snapper, Silver Trevally, Rays, Salmon, Whiting, Mullet, sea-run Brown Trout, amongst many others.  
I've tried to insert a map at the bottom of the photos but alas it won't appear!



We believe these things in the river are oysters but unhealthy to eat.


Clarence Point.  Our eldest niece and her husband are going to live here, they have a beautiful view up the Tamar River.
