Ok just looking at info into travelling tassie next summer. Which is the best way to take the van and fly or to travel with the van?? The other option we have been told is leave the van and hire a car we are looking at 3 months. Thanks Ken & Cheryl

Some weeks ago, some-one posted a beautiful Tropical Pool Pic. in the "Pick This Place" Thread. [ I think that's where it was.] Been trying to find it again, as I saved it, [ it's now my Desk-top Background.] but I can't remember where it was. I'm having a problem going back through the la...
