Cocotu at the Woods’s
This friendly cocotu came to visit us at the Woods’s home just out of Hobart in Tasmania.
Wedding randoms
Some random photos of people at Stu and Lauren McLennan’s wedding in Hobart, Tasmania. Actually, they’re not that random, they just didn’t fit in with the other blog posts I was writing :p
Soppiness
Some soppy lovey dovey pics from the wedding of Stu and Lauren McLennan in Hobart Tasmania.
What the?
I have no idea why, but for some strange reason people tend to look at me a bit funny sometimes. Please leave a comment below if you think you might know why … Photos taken at the wedding of Stu and Lauren McLennan in Hobart, Tasmania.
Bode and Susan
Bode and Susan kidnapped me and dragged me off to the dump, followed by a trip to the local female factory (didn’t find anything that suited my tastes) then took me to Cascade Brewery in Hobart Australia for a beer.
The flower boys
Liz McLennan kindly stuck flowers on us at Stu and Lauren McLennan’s wedding.
Stu’s men
Laurens’ bridesmaids
The lovely girls from the wedding of Stu and Lauren McLennan in Hobart, Tasmania.
Melbourne
I separated from the rest of the crew after leaving Tasmania and explored Melbourne on my own. I took my roller hockey skates with me so could cover heaps of ground in minimal time 🙂 I jumped the barrier stopping the traffic from getting on to the Albert Park formula 1 track (which was being […]
People in Hobart
Whilst surfing my backups I found these photos from my trip to Hobart in 2007. The first two are from a trip with Kelly Kilpin, Lisa McClintock and Vicki Argyle on a boat in Hobart. The second two are from dinner that night at Sals restaurant.
Cockles Creek
Lisa, Vicky, Jon and I visited Cockles Creek which is the most southern most point of Australia (well, almost). The weather was stonking hot and we had lots of fun fooling around on a giant whale.
Air Walk
Erm, this was rather unexciting. It’s just a big bridge built up in these huge trees south of Hobart.
Hastings Caves
Vicky Argyle, Tasha Munro, Lisa McClintock and I all ventured south from Hobart to visit the Hastings Caves. The caves are truly spectacular and you can get some wonderful pictures inside. There’s a sign outside saying you aren’t allowed to use a tripod, but the guide told me it was okay as long as I […]
Tasmanian Wildlife
Aside from the occasional near miss with wallabies and possums scampering across the road in front of our car we (me, Lisa and Vicky) also visited a wildlife sanctuary between Port Arthur and Hobart.
Duck?
My series of photos of strange looking but probably quite common birds continues. Is this a duck or what? I shot this photo in a little town just north of Hobart in Tasmania.
Port Arthur
Vicky, Lisa and I visited the Port Arthur penal colony. This is the site of one of Australia’s most infamous prisons. The old ruins are spectacular and well worth the visit. We also went on a ghost tour around the colony the night before.
Architecture around Tasmania
There were some stunning examples of early colonial architecture around Tasmania.
Cruising in Hobart
Jon, Lisa, Kelly, Vicky and myself all piled onto a little boat and took a cruise around the harbour in Hobart. Vicky’s obsession with taking gagillions of photos went into overdrive during the trip.
Hobart Prison
Lisa, Jon, Vicky and I visited one of the oldest prisons in Hobart. There were lots of creepy things to see including this scary ghost of a beautiful woman, for some reason she looks oddly familiar. Jon Kitchen looked oddly at home inside a locked prison cell. The stones in the floor which the prisoners […]
Hobart
I went to Hobart for IC07 which is the biggest inorganic chemistry conference in Australasia. The conference was a success. I met lots of new people, made some new friends and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Hobart is an excellent place to visit. It’s very picturesque, the weather is great and it’s not too busy.
