An epic journey…to Hobart (Part 1)

 

“Is it really going to take 7 hours on a bus to get to Hobart?” said Johnny.

“No, of course not,” said Miss B, “We’ve booked the Magic School Bus. It will only a few minutes-max!”

I really hope the bus company have something like this tucked away…

This coming week i’m off to Hobart with a bunch of kids for the bi-annual “city experince” to Hobart. I’m leaving nine kids behind (Grade 4’s) and taking my Grade 5’s along with the other 5/6 class to sightsee, rock climb and check out chilly Hobart. I’m hoping we don’t have anyone getting bus sick (myself included)…

I’m looking forward to going, and will have my birthday with the kids and teachers from school the week that i’m there. Won’t see my family till the end of the week. No matter, have already gotten presents from mum (kitchen scales and mini lights) and my brother, so just have to check for all the others (i’m expecting truckloads) that will have arrived in the post when i get back! He he…

We are going to Cadbury’s (just to watch a movie and to go to the shop- no tours anymore (humph!!), swimming, ice skating (i can’t help but imagine sliced hands, legs etc), cinema, mini golf, All You Can Eat Pizza Hut, bowling, Museum visit and having a posh lunch at Parliment House! Phew. I can’t wait for Friday though- we go to a shopping centre and let the kids loose and we get to do our own stuff.

I’ll report back when i return from the epic journey…I’m getting tired just thinking about it!! I haven’t even started packing my bag- oh bugger it, i’ll do it later.
