102 Harrington St Hobart, Tasmania, Australia, 7000, 03-6234-9277-
Nach einer schlaflosen Nacht wegen zu vielen Nachtschwärmern in und um das Hotel machte ich mich frühmorgens zum jeweils samstags stattfindenden Salamanca-Market. Dort gibt es alles zu kaufen: Früchte, Gemüse, Fleisch aber auch zahlreiche Handwerker-Arbeiten, Souvenirs, Bücher und noch vieles mehr, meist aber Tasmanische Produkte. Auch der Salamanca Place lädt, speziell bei gutem Wetter, zum Verweilen ein. Hobart ist auch für den alten Stadtteil Battery Point bekannt wo es ...
Hobart, Tasmania, Australia 3110280477... had another 3 floors added in 1927. You can see the difference between the convict block and the smooth blocks cut later on. The original workers, truck drivers included, were permitted as much beer as they could drink at morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea but could only fill their glass once and go back to the end of the line for more. Wow things have changed!!!
We arrived back in the bar to be treated to 3 beers of our choice ...
... a smaller one on the front, usually looking like I need a good wash as the result of a long journey (secretly I'd like dreadlocks to complete the look)! Then I look at the tourists (Japanese in particular) with their huge sun visors, maps, taking photos of everything and anything, always a bit over excited! But my cool traveller image soon went out of the window when I found myself sitting on a bus with a picture of Karl Kennedy and the words ...
Hobart, Tasmania, Australia nickyloo... bottle of wine and watched the fireworks going off in Hobart which marked the end of the regatta. It was also the end of the wooden boat festival, but we are hoping that there are still a few left to see.... Today we are seeing the other sights of Hobart (if we can't find any wooden boats), then heading off to Freycinet tomorrow for a few days. We may then try to tackle ...
Hobart, Tasmania, Australia dawnandphill... the best food in Australia! We could have just stayed there eating all day! We also stopped at some incredible parks (Arthur Circus and Princes Park), went down to the waterfront, stepped down the famous Kellys Steps, and meandered along Salamanca Place. We ended a packed day by going into the city center, walking around some more, being silly, and taking care of some business. Well, Dan changed rooms to mine, and as we were chatting the door opened, and voila! there was Mattieu. I ...
Hobart, Tasmania, Australia dudeonthemove... ever seen in my life. A rainbow every day in Tasmania and in Melbourne. July 26th to August 10th no joke about 15 rainbows. We got the pictures to prove it to. Well were back in Brisbane. We got two weeks till Thailand. Laur's sis will be here on Friday morning and our friend Trip will be here on Tuesday. Its just non stop until we get home for sisters wedding. Then maybe Costa Rica for a bit? We'll see next post will be from Malaysia and then Thailand. Chris
Hobart, Tasmania, Australia carrera2u... properties (and on into an adjoining valley) that afternoon. Luckily Bill & Marjorie managed to save their house, but their land & gardens were almost burnt through. Thank God that both they and the house were ok in the end! We stayed another day, helped out a bit with the hosing down, then headed off up to Devonport to catch the ferry back to Melbourne.
Hobart, Australia traylertravels... disappointed that I dragged myself out of bed to see them lose but it was a good performance nevertheless) the bus came and picked us up at 7.30am. We had a great group of people on our bus and there was only 7 of us which was a nice size. We went to Freyncinet national park where we completed a 2 and a half hour walk (uphill I might add!) to Wineglass Bay, it was stunning, we were so lucky that the cloud and rain had cleared by the time we got down to the ...
Hobart, Australia nickytorkington... make me salivate. You could see the drool. The climb back up was a real killer though. Lots and lots of steps. There was one welcome distraction though...a Lyrca clad hottie sped past us on his way up. Prior to this, it had only taken show tunes from Oliver! to motivate us on the flat. After BBQ steak and chicken wings for lunch and lots of stops to look at pretty things on the way, we pulled into our Port Arthur pad. Wow, that has a real ring to it. Many ...
