Day 132: Launceston to Hobart

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.

Day 131: Devonport to Hobart

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!!!
