Visitors

This week my parents have come to visit us in Hobart. They are our first visitors, and I lost my patience a few times, but it went so quickly and now the house feels empty. Fortunately we have another visitor tonight; so the quietness will be short-lived.
Mostly it took me from my routine but it was great to get out and explore with them. We spent the first day and a half getting our place habitable for guests (with the help of the guests), and the remainder exploring.

On Monday we waited for a bed delivery, trekked through North Hobart and the tip of the CBD, (where I checked out the CWA store for the first time and was impressed) Tuesday we went to Bruny, Wednesday we went to Russell Falls and Mount Field and Thursday Cygnet and Hobart again.
The highlights would have to be the $2 2005 German design mag I picked up down from the CWA, but am yet to read, the drive to the point (near art of the point) on Bruny which I hadn't been to before (although it was closed it was a nice drive), Russell Falls in Mount Field National Park (which I couldn't resist sharing again) where we saw snow, wallabies and so much growth, Dev'Lish Espresso on Macquarie Street, Hobart, where I had some really great gnocchi, and a Lark Whisky Chocolate Bar from Cygneture Chocolates.
