This is a shot of Lucas Drive, Lamb Island’s main drag, albeit a section of it that’s fronted by three bushy acreage blocks rather than houses. As the image below shows, the road runs the full length of the island (the yellow spot is where the picture was taken from). All up, it’s just a few metres short of being exactly two kilometres long. Sometimes it’s even busier than you see here, but not all that often. In fact, when we Lamb Islanders meet someone driving the other way, it’s enough of an event for us to raise a hand in greeting as we pass each other. Who says life here doesn’t get exciting?
