The calm before the storm

Two days from now the somewhat sleepy city of Hobart will be buzzing as Sydney to Hobart yachts begin arriving. Tonight, as Garry and I wandered back from dinner, the waterfront was calm and quiet. This really is a working harbour. Fishing boats, stacked high with wicker lobster pots, are moored in rows everywhere.

We're also feeling rather chilled ourselves. The reservation system at our hotel decided I was a regular guest from Victoria. With guests pouring in from everywhere it decided the frequently visiting Mr McGregor should be upgraded to a corner suite on a high floor. As a result, Garry and I are enjoying a stunning view over the docks and harbour beyond. Thank you computer.
