Batman Bridge

The Batman Bridge built in 1966 - 1968 was the first cable stayed bridge in Australia is only about 30 minutes from home with a good run.  It was named after John Batman, a Tasmanian pioneer and the founder of the city of Melbourne.

The photos were taken on different days over time.

Several years ago people used to park their caravans all in the above area, there were toilets, picnic tables and the grass was mowed and green, then the local council in the area decided that no one could park their caravans there, toilets were removed and placed in another area, even some picnic tables and chairs were removed.  Now the area is just a place to look at the whirlpools in the Tamar River in that area.  I guess the locals didn't care for holiday makers and wanted to keep the area for themselves or something like that.

Wedding Anniversary

60th Wedding Anniversary dinner at the Country Club Casino at Links Restaurant celebrated with family, no photos of family.  Sister-in-law J took the photo.

Thank you all for the lovely comments.

I've had curly hair ever since I can remember, however a few years after I was married, I grew my hair longer and used to iron it with an iron on the ironing board with a tea towel over my hair to help keep it straight.  After a few years or more straighteners came to the fashion scene in about 1980, so I used one of those for many years until about 3 years ago when I let my hair be it's natural self.

If we have curly hair we want straight hair and vice a versa. 

I've shown the Casino before, it was in February so these photos below are just a reminder and I forgot to take photos of the Restaurant once again.  I hopefully will think of it next time we go there.
