Hi Guys,
Had a quick look at your web site, and your itinerary and noticed that you are spending a month in Tassie, well done for thinking of us first,lol, but seriously you might want to re think the one month, it won't be long enough.
Enjoy our state and your travels.
Cheers
Baz

You, like me, have obviously enjoyed the research for your trip, & will, no doubt,
enjoy it immensely. We sail for a month in Tassie on Feb 5, & may come across
you somewhere. Silver Jack & C/t with EO stuff on both......oldbaz.

We are going for 6 weeks starting this Monday morning on the boat at 7.00am Heaps to do all around the island. There is a wooden boat festival starting on the 14th Feb in Hobart which I have been told is great to see and be a part off.

Cheers
Bill

G'day Ben good luck with your trip.
We started our trip 8 months ago (our blog and have been in Tassie for 18 days. The weather is colder than normal ( apparently ) about 12 to 23 deg, so bring warm clothes. All the locals keep telling us it is normally warmer. Our plan is six weeks and even though this place is small, we still won't see it all.
We have 2 boys, 9 and 12, home schooling is going ok, with only the occasional disagreement.
Our whole trip is 2 years, but after 8 months I reckon we won't even see half of it which gives us a great excuse to do it again.
I'm sure you will have a great time.
Cheers.
Joel
ps my wife is doing the blog as we speak but she isn't up to Tassie yet, hope she doesn't read this for a while.
