Persona Mona

Staying in Hobart we could not miss the opportunity to explore the infamous Museum of Old and New Art (MONA) with our 8-year-old Kidsetter.  Before entering the building, Mona had already captured our Kidsetter’s imagination having a tennis court in front and giant trampoline structure for kids to jump on.  There is also a fabulous […]

Port Arthur

We travelled to Port Arthur with our Kidsetter in tow.  I must admit I had my reservations taking an 8-year-old Kidsetter here as I wondered just how gruesome the tales would be of it’s tumultuous past. I discovered it’s all in the guide – we explored the ruins with our very knowledgeable guide named Helen […]

Historic Hahndorf

We enjoyed a day out at Hahndorf Adelaide Hills with our 7-year-old Kidsetter, located 25 minutes from Adelaide. Strolling along Hahndorf’s historic main street is like stepping back in time.  Settled in 1839, Hahndorf is Australia’s oldest surviving German settlement and still has a strong German flavour most evident in the smallgoods outlets, bakeries, pubs, […]

Queen Elizabeth

After boarding the ship, locating our cabin, attending the safety induction, it was time to kick back and relax !  We have travelled on various cruise lines and QE was distinctively elegant in every way.  As we […]
