A Slow Day in Hobart

Today and yesterday, we reached a slowing down point. Although we had lots of plans, we ran into things that took longer than planned - and others that we wanted to spend more time with than planned - and decided to push things back a bit to enjoy the day. We replaced one of our partial hiking days instead with a lazy day around Hobart. Originally intending to drive up Mount Wellington for the views, the steady rain all day decided us and we instead went to a movie, toured a few local breweries, wineries and a cheese and chocolate making farm. (Obviously we chose the less healthy option than hiking!)

Hobart is a beautiful city and we're staying in a great neighborhood near the wharf full of cute restaurants and pubs, parks, shops and Christmas decorations. We had a few hours yesterday before the rain came in to enjoy the wharf and Salamanca Square areas with sunshine, which was beautiful, although it looks like it will rain all the rest of our time in Tasmania. Fingers crossed for only light rain and some good views anyway!
