Strawbees Hovercraft
I got a Strawbees Hovercraft kit for Christmas. You can find videos online. It's pretty fun and very zippy. I was a little imprecise attaching the main platform to the skirt and it likes to favour one direction and turning that direction heavily, but it's designed for re-manufacture with easy to scrounge junk...so that's OK!!
Like all toys with a price tag, the box ultimately becomes the best part...for kitties.
Jana, Garrick and I went for a brief camp at Warnambool in the van (still in very early stages).
We saw a HUUUGEE ray at the pier, he kept coming to the surface and inspecting the seaweed on the pillars. His tail had been damaged but he seemed unaffected in his travels. He was easily 1.2m or more across. An absolute monster.
We played mini golf as is the custom on holidays. Jana and I got new high (low?) scores scores for our suburb and featured on their leader board! Awesome!
