An immediate contrast. No wind. Our host drives us to the top ofMount Wellington. 1.2km above sea level, a steady climb tempts runners and cyclists. The views are impressive and show the scale of Hobart relative to the land.
1833 seems an important year. Battery point area is where they placed guns to defend from the British enemies in 1841: France and the USA. Convicts had a hard time, including the 10000 women shipped here.
Feels a thriving friendly city: the traffic is very quiet as it’s a Sunday.
A perfect rest day.
