Day 6 - 23rd November 2006

As our last full day in Hobart during stay #1, we had always planned to take it easy. We went for a walk downtown, checked out a few shops and had pizza for lunch. When we returned home, we watched the cricket, had a rest and a general bludge.

In the afternoon we came across the coolest park that was humbly named the Parliament St Playground. It had an awesome slide, probably 15 metres long down a fairly steep hill. We all had a few rides, with Mark and the boys being the most frequent flyers. We all wished we'd discovered this park sooner and we will visit again during Hobart stay #2.

After the park we went for a bit of a drive, stopping briefly outside the casino and drove as far as the shot tower. No-one was too sure what this was for except that it had something to do with creating shot for muskets.

We partook of some fine Scotish cuisine on the way home and had dinner consisting of everything that was frozen and would therefore not survive the trip tomorrow.

Mum made a yummy apple pie and after cleaning up the unit ready for tomorrow's departure, we headed to bed.
