Miss Fish on Adventure

Jes, AKA Miss Fish at her work, came out for a paddle with me. Being a Tassie born native she had no hesitation to get wet, but for me it was still a little too cool.


The little waterproof Panasonic camera worked well (in this cold climate), apart from sun glare in the lens here and there (considering there is no lens hood this is to be expected).


Only a couple of cormorants on the rookery today, but the whiff (which I am oblivious to) was very strong according to Miss Fish who must have acute olfactory senses...

CF Clinic in Burnie

As much as it is meant to be depressing, visiting the CF clinic is always a bit of an entertaining afternoon. Too bad there is no travel subsidy to travel 65kms there and same back.

Denise and James looking their best....

Doctor Reid thinking about sunny Brisbane...

Although lung function was a miraculous 52% of predicted for FEV1 last month, it is now back to a normal 46%. Considering I have dropped below 40% in the past this is pretty OK. I just had a break of the antibiotics for 2 weeks, which proably explains why I dorpped again...
