Fun in the Apple Isle!

Headed off bright and early to Tasmania....we have never been here before and were really excited about our visit. A short flight from Sydney and there we were....no jet lag, not enough time to get wriggly in our seats, but enough time for me to read a small book ( I am a fast reader at the best of times!). Picked up the hire car and made it straight to our hotel...more out of good luck than clever navigating!


Lunch at Salamanca Place, then an afternoon wandering around the city and docks area...such a pretty city! Dinner at The Drunken Admiral and then another wander around the docks. SB thought I could sit in the cauldron ( a fitting place for me???), but I declined! All that fresh air....might have an early night I think!


Looking forward to exploring tomorrow,

    Would have to agree with the luck of funding the hotel rather than the clever navigation......any speeding fines?

    Love Tassie, especially Hobart. A lot of childhood memories of spending holidays with my grandmother, delightful.

    You're in my neck of the woods, enjoy it! Springtime weather can be windy and wet but hopefully you get some nice days in between.
