Up this morning and walked 100 metres to the show grounds market. Not as big as Bendigo and with the usual show grounds preloved items. In the car and drove up Mt Wellington. This is over 1000 metres above sea level. It was slightly cloudy but there was next to no wind and the thermometer showed 9 degrees. A great view of Hobart and surrounding areas as there are 3 different lookout points that have boardwalks to them. You can also climb over rocks and up on the roof of a little hut, which gives you 360 degree views as you are on the highest point of the mountain. Back down the mountain and off to the casino. We had thought we might do their buffet lunch but as it was mothers day the buffet was seafood and double the price so instead went in and put some money through the pokies. We both had coffee and I played the pokies for about half an hour and we came out with the same amount of money in our pockets. We then drove over the Tasman Bridge and found a shopping centre and went in for a look around and sushi for lunch. Headed back to cross the Tasman Bridge again when we saw a sign for Rosny Park lookout so we headed up there first. From here we could see Bellerive Oval. Back across the bridge and back to the van where we have bunkered down. Rain is on the way. Mt. Wellington is now covered in cloud and you cannot see the peak.
