| Sandy Bay Beach - just about in the city centre |
A glorious sunny
warm Hobart day.
We have been
extremely busy and we have been testing the limits of Pete’s house.
It is not a very
big house… There are three bedrooms plus a dark dungeon-ish room with a single
bed perched hopefully in the depths. But
we managed to fit in nine extra people over the weekend. No not ALL at the same time… Just two extras
on Friday, easypeasy, and then SEVEN extras on Saturday…All went well; nobody
got too badly crushed or suffocated by friends and relations.
I had a delightful
excursion on Saturday morning, with Felix and Jemima. HIGH entertainment – a trip to town on the
bus! It couldn’t have been more
thrilling, going down the hills of West Hobart, around roundabouts and steep
corners.

This morning we
went to Sandy Bay Beach where one of our little ones got stung by a lurking
jellyfish and others climbed on the Stephen Walker sculpture.

A beautiful Hobart
weekend if…slightly exhausting…
Zoe has learned to
ride her bike without training wheels.
Jeff took the wheels off and - off she went! Up and down hills, around corners, over bumps
and minor crevasses. She is
indomitable! And her legs bear witness
to her bravery in getting back on after every unplanned dismount…
And the good news is…the WRX has survived its lobotomy
and now it starts Every Single Time. WEE
HEE! We will NEVER take this for
granted…
