Tasmania-Hobart

2 days in Melbourne and we needed to jump on a plane to Tasmania to dry out!!
Hobart is a satisfyingly small city and easy to navigate. Bus drivers were chummy and in no time we had booked into our historic waterfront hotel and were out again on the water taxi to MONA- the museum of old and new art, a provocative Tasmanian institution. And we certainly had our artistic neurones stimulated in many ways.....
The next day we caught the tourist bus half way up Mt Wellington- and walked the rest. An amazing 1200 m mountain that looms over the city. What an amazing place to live! We rounded off the day with a visit to the " female factory" and learned some of the horrific ( female) convict history, before wandering down the Hobart Rivulet and back home.Leer más
