Tasmania is an amazing part of the country, Kate. It’s the first time I’ve travelled much of the state and I was really impressed. Well worth a visit. I’m sure you’ll love your time there when you get to Tas. 🙂

Well, now’s your chance to try out the new ships, Lorraine! It’s a lovely way to travel – a much more relaxed pace. And with ample opportunity to get into the food frenzy of Tas before you even get there! It’s a beautiful part of Australia though, isn’t it? So lush and such changeable scenery. Love it there.

Yes, I think we were pretty lucky with the weather, Sarah! I think we had one evening of rain the whole time. Pretty rare for for Tas – especially in the spring.

Yes, Mike, the new look to the Spirit of Tas is a real improvement. There’s some great time-lapse and before-and-after footage on the Spirit of Tasmania website. We never saw the old ships but the new look’s great.
