Last night I stayed at the Villas at the Country Club with my friend Vincent and
his family while everyone else went home to Hobart. After they left I played
basketball with Vincent, and we also went to the pool. We went to The Gorge and
rode the chairlift before dinner.
The next day we went to the pool for a quick swim and then we went to Scotch
Oakburn for a chess tournament. All the games I played were tricky. I won 5 out
of 9 games and New Town Primary won the state championships, which means the
team gets to go to Melbourne. The team got a big trophy which got put in our
school office.
After we drove home to Hobart. We stopped for MacDonald's for dinner. And it was
nice to be home.

Today we woke up at 5:45am to get off the ferry around 6:00am. The first thing we
did was drive to a cafe to meet the Sharmans (some of our friends) and Oma for
breakfast. I got pancakes with banana, strawberries, and maple syrup. The
playground nearby had a really fun piece of equipment where you hold on and go
in a circle with your feet off the ground.
Then we stopped at the chocolate factory in Latrobe were Dad and Theo played
chess in the caravan and we got hot chocolates for everyone (apart from Theo who
got a Good Apple juice).
Next we drove to Launceston to drop Theo off for his chess comp tomorrow. He is
staying with Vincent. Then we drove home. On the way we stopped in Campbell Town
for lunch and I got Banjos! At home Mum and Dad parked the caravan and I
unpacked my stuff. We are finally home!!!
