First School Break Holiday Day 8 (is it day 8?) -Hobart

Based on a tip, we booked a Bruny Island Cruise.  We drove from Hobart to meet the tour bus.  For the kids, this was a huge part of the actual tour.  The bus drove 30 meters to the ferry line.  We disembarked wandered around, got back on the bus, drove on to the ferry, got off the bus, got back on the bus, drove off the ferry and then drove 45 minutes to the start of the cruise (the same thing happened on the way back, trust me, I don't need to tell you about it!)

So can I do one or the other but not both?
We discovered that only a few people actually want to sit at the front of the boat since it is the bumpiest, wettest part of the entire tour.  Let me tell you that our family wanted EVERY PART of the wettest bumpiest part of a boat cruise on the open ocean (two different oceans, I might add).  We grabbed our spots at the front, put on our giant rain ponchos and strapped in.  Yep, seatbelts required.  GAME ON!
The waves were big at some points and the whole experience was fabulous.  It was a bit chilly at the front on the open water, but it was a whole lot of fun!

We saw lots of stuff.

Nature...

More nature...

 Blah, blah nature...
 

 Stuff, things about nature....

It was awesome.
