Tasmania - Day 4

--
Nice and easy day today. It was our rest day in Hobart, the capital of Tasmania. A few of our companions had a late flight so we got to visit the town with some company. David, Nayeli and Emma had the same late flight, Vicky and Shizuka were also spending the day at Hobart so the 7 of us decided to do the city route suggested by the Lonely Planet, but before that we went to have breakfast.



Very modern...a custard danish with a beeper instead of my hot chocolate...

As soon as they finished with my chocolate all the lights of the beeper went off so I could exchange the beeper for a hot chocolate and once with a full stomach and a big smile on our faces we were all ready to start the walk.




We had lunch at a Vietnamese restaurant and they didn't have "Vietnamese rolls", that was the first clue that something wasn't right with the place I should have known better. My roasted duck was in reality roasted duck bones because eating it was more like a mining operation than having lunch. A total disapppointment.

After lunch David and I went to the park while all the girls went shopping, then after saying good-bye to everyone AĆ­da and I went out again, this time to a recommended bakery and had dinner there. It was nice.
Someone had recommended this bakery to us in the morning but we went to another which was just in front without seeing this one thinking the other was this one. It was only fair to come and try it out and I can concur, this was a nice bakery. :-)

As tomorrow we have an early start we decided to call it a day.
