Hobart

On the countdown to returning home.

semi-overcast 22 °C

Dear All

Arrived back in Hobart. Drive down from Strahan was thankfully uneventful although all the bends in those roads made life just a little interesting. Nearly got run off the road by a truck who really was speeding up a hill and on very narrow twisty roads. All I could see in the rear view mirrow was the grille of the truck. Needless to say, I took the easy way out and pulled over to let him go through. I truly didn't feel like trying to keep up with him.

The GPS we hired nearly wound up in the Derwent River!. Stupid thing. I had two choices of King Street and I chose the one which I had originally chosen to get us to the B&B before. However this time, it decided to have fun with Bee and took us smack into the middle of Hobart City and then refused to recalculate to get us to the B&B. Managed to back track on our own and find the place. Never mind. All in the fun of touring.

Tomorrow will go back into Hobart but probably by water taxi. I don't particularly wish to try to get a hire car into the city and park. I know!. No spririt of adventure!

Anyway. Will load some more piccies on today.

Cheers

Bee and Ron
