Hobart, Tasmania, Australia - First time for all of us




















So part of the tour that the cousins selected headed to Hobart for a couple days.  I have friends that have moved there so I made my first visit in that direction as well.  

Such an old traditional Australia feel - and not that much new or tall added.  They seem to like it the way it was.  Beautiful harbour city - super walkable as well...lots of up and downs for sure.  

Melbourne Australia - ANZAC Day and one more try at the Markets
































The first timers got a special treat in being in Australia for ANZAC Day - the day they remember all of those that served and died.  Australia takes great pride in going when asked - and continues to honor it.  

There was a parade for most of the morning and then we wandered down to the Shrine of Rememberance a bit later in the day.  Always a moving experience.  

Finished off the evening at Berlin - a bar much hipper than us.  But we did our best. 

And then next morning we went for round 2 to get to the Victoria Markets and scored - got a great for all of it.
