Dear Chibi,

Last month (oh my, it’s December already?), we went away to celebrate our 8 year wedding anniversary with family time at the beach. We stayed at Pelican in the city of Lake Macquarie and explored some lovely local beaches. P-chan had an absolute blast splashing in the waves. His big beautiful smile says it all <3

A week in Tasmania Part 1: Hobart

Dear Chibi,

We started the day with some breakfast at Jackman & McRoss before leaving for the east coast.

Freshly brewed chai milk tea with honey

Scallop and Seaweed Pie ~ very interesting taste!

Bacon and scrambled eggs focaccia

..And with that, it was time to say good bye to Hobart :)

Dear Chibi,

For our one year wedding anniversary, Hubby and I flew down to Tasmania where we spent 7 days exploring this beautiful little island, making our way up from Hobart to Launceston!

Maccas for breakfast @Sydney Airport. I would like 3 sugars with that please!

The flight was quick and painless, in a mere 1.5 hour we had arrived in Hobart (I beat the first level of Super Hexagon, woo~ go me!) We picked up our rental car and got a free upgrade for it ~ yay, lucky us :D

Unfortunately it was raining on the first day so we didn’t do too much. We explored the CBD and checked-in to our hotel at Bay View Villas, where we stayed for 2 nights.

Lunch @Sakura Sushi (but I decided to go for good old Chinese Soy Chicken Noodles XP)

We found the prices of food here to be generally quite expensive. On average a simple meal would cost you $25 a person excluding a drink. But hey, Tassie is kind of a touristy place and we are in Australia so we just came to accept it as the norm 8D

At around 8pm, the sun was still shining outside. Hubby and I started to look for a place for dinner and were quite surprised a lot of the restaurants were already closing! Dai pinchie XD!
