Easter Adventures - Day 2

Saturday of the Easter weekend, saw us up and in the car bright and early. We were heading to Hobart for the day (more sea to see!). We stopped in Campbell town on the way for a yummy brunch, before heading down through the centre of the island to Hobart.

We had chosen Saturday for our Hobart visit, so that we could go to the Salamanca Markets - big markets that Hobart is known for. So after juggling our way through the one way system and finding somewhere to park, we set off to explore the markets...which seemed to go on for miles!

Then we explored the waterfront, looking at all the interesting yachts and fishing boats. We even managed (with the help of the camera zoom!) to look at the Sea Shepard boat.

After lunch in a little cafe behind the market, where we ate some yummy  local food, we hopped in the car again and drove round the coast a bit (looking at other marinas!) and then headed across the river to look at the other half of Hobart. Got some good views of the harbour bridge, and looked at some more boats :) found a lovely little cafe for a yummy hot choc & cake, before heading home.

We went home via the East Coast - very beautiful coastal drive. We definately made the most of being able to see the sea! Stopped in Swansea for dinner - however by this time it was dark so we didn't see much of the place, or of the drive home after that.

Hobart is a lovely vibrant city, with a great waterfront scene. We definately hope to visit there again, and spend some more time exploring the East Coast.
