However, it's so dry I doubt there's a lake big enough in it for an island with a lake with another island on it. Perhaps in Tasmania...

A couple of reasons to give more weight to lakes on islands:

  • most lakes are on continents; it is nothing special to find a lake on one

  • continents and islands are simply considered different; see http://www.worldislandinfo.com/CONTISLAND.html
