4 September 2017, Hobart, Tasmania
.
Our main objective in visiting Hobart was to visit the Museum of Old and New Art (MoNA).
.
This involves a ride up the Derwent River from Hobart in a Catamaran.
.
There are many wonderful, bizarre and unique exhibits inside the museum but I didn’t take any photographs inside (though I could have done). I felt it would have been too much just photographing art works without interpretation and that didn’t appeal to me at the time.
.
So here are some of the wonderful outside sculptures (in this case also a building).
.
We could see this from inside the bulding but it took some exploring to find it.
.
The weather held off for us but intermittently there was some very heavy rain.
.
This is back to the sculpture of the truck.

.
Back on the Hobart waterfront. I paced it out and this is a 70 foot ketch, of similar size to the one we were soon to sail on. This is very different though. Although modern, it is a hybrid replica of ships from say the eighteenth century. The purpose is for commercial day trips from Hobart.
.
Lastly we walked around Battery Point and I photographed some of the charming old cottages. This is at Arthur’s Circus.

A bit further on, round the corner on Hampden Road.

Some is better than none Murray. THanks for sharing. What was the wheel and or truck made of??
