[boobaloo]

hey ladies,
we're off to hobart for 10 days in september for my great uncles 80th birthday. df has never been down there, and the kids are nearly 5 and 3.5. anyone have any ideas on things to do? don't mind driving.

Yeah drive up and see me!!!

[boobaloo]

i think i will for a sanity break! i think the kids will definately be in the mood for kid-company and lordy knows they can get that at your place!!!
you guys are near launceston aren't you?

[Arimeh]

Yeah 25kms out of launceston
Been ages since I've seen you!!!

[boobaloo]

i know! that's why you have to move back to bris, so i have another mummy-friend! 25 kms out is easy to do! we're staying just south of hobart, so it'd be a good day trip. the kids will love it!

[Arimeh]

its about a 3 hour drive from there to exeter

Eaglehawk neck- my fave trip as a kid. Stop to see the blow hole, tessellated pavement and devil's kitchen on the way to port arthur

Tazmazia is cool.

The gorge in Launceston is fun for kids- I always loved it anyway. The pea****s, suspension bridge and chairlift are cool.

Go up Mt Wellington and play in some snow.

thanks meow, i'd already planned the eaglehawk neck part, but i'll definately have a look at launceston gorge, something i could tie in with my visit to Mel
have also found a wilderness cruise, and some cave tours with hot spring swimming, so i think the kids should be fairly entertained!!

Ooh, another BB girl to meet . I'm in Launceston and see Mel all the time (seriously, I basically live there ).

[Arimeh]

(seriously, I basically live there ).

well she's either here or I'm at her house.. lol

[boobaloo]

sounds like a plan! lol, don't know what df will do for the day, think he'll feel a bit out-numbered!! yay!! we'll set up a day and everything, but that'll be great xo
