Melbourne Day 4

It was another beautiful Melbourne morning. We got up at around 7:30ish and decided to head out for coffee first. We walked down the road to Industry Beans – Speciality coffee roasters and made our orders. Another delicious drip. Melbourne is really well known for their coffee culture and is seen as one of the […]

Melbourne Day 3

It was a nice sleep in this morning and we finally got some good rest. We worked out how to use the thermostat which made our sleep much better. This morning we had heard of another really great patisserie that was a few blocks up the road so we figured that we would wonder up […]

Melbourne Day 2

It was a rough sleep last night. I think a combination of trying to work out how to use the thermostat (and thus inconsistent temperature), sleeping in a smaller bed than we are used to and being extremely full may have contributed to the poor sleep.

To Hobart we go

Today we were heading to the capital city of Tasmania, Hobart. Out of the states and territory’s capital cities this would make it so that we’ve both visited the same five capitals. First, we needed breakfast though. We left our very comfortable Airbnb after a nice sleep and headed to the local bakery. We both […]

From one Bay to another

This morning we woke up in at the Bay of Fires Bush Retreat. We had a pretty good sleep here because the bed was big and comfy. It rained pretty much all night but we slept soundly. By the morning the rain had stopped which we were glad for because of the day of activities […]

Bay of fires…or Waters

We woke up on this rainy morning in the lovely log cabin at cradle mountain. We had a long drive ahead of us but before we did this we still had some unfinished business at cradle mountain. An early wake up allowed us to make it to our complimentary continental breakfast, which was okay but […]
