Hobart






Had a lovely time in Hobart, rather a compact city like Wellington. Weather was warm but windy which is better than cold or rainy! Went to museum, art gallery, pier area with historic buildings and fish restaurants where we went to in the evening for some seafood chowder. Indulged in a buffet lunch at the casino where we went with friends on our previous trip in 1993. Got on a bus and went to the botanic gardens and came back from a tiki tour over the bridge and into the burbs. Havent seen anything much to buy not even in Target.

Visited the State Library which had very spacious seating areas and free internet (10 minutes!) and also a lovely museum of decorative arts attached to it.
