Hobart to Melbourne

Our 33rd anniversary and, once again, we get to celebrate in another part of the world.  So lucky!

We spent the morning and early afternoon at the Salamanca Market, a weekly event in Hobart.  It's huge and jammed with both locals and tourists.  It started as a hippie market in the 70's and has grown from then on.  All kinds of stuff was being sold, but we concentrated on food and entertainment.  There were musicians of all kinds, dancers, gymnasts, and flag twirlers.  Across from the market was an antique car show in the park. All fun!

Returned the van, which was a fine way to travel.  Small, but after a couple of days we figured out how to organize our stuff so we could get at it easily.   A month in New Zealand in a similar vehicle should be  no problem!

The usual "weigh everything and then juggle it around" stuff at the airport, and it looks like our flight is an hour late.  We won't be doing much when we get to Melbourne.
