Float House in Victoria

Many people would like to sleep on water beds. We think the reason of that may be because people like the feeling of floating in water which is very relaxing. For most of the water bed owners, they spend about one third of the time on the water beds in 24 hours on the average. There is one way to be able to float in water all day if you live in a float house like this one.

We saw a lot of float houses in Victoria when Joyce and Bennet took us to tour the island on 9th September 2006. Those float houses have all the features most regular houses have, patio, bedrooms, living room, hardwood floor, etc. We think the major difference between a float house and a regular house is the yard. For float houses, the front and back yards are the sea. So, they go to the yard to row a boat but not basketball, for instance.

If you worry that the float house would sink, relax. One of the float houses was on sale while we were there and the sign had this statement "Positive floatation, i.e. cannot sink".
