2ndJanuary 2013.

Okay, enough relaxing. After breakfast, we headed into town and visited the Botanical Gardens. It was a magical place and the best was definitely the Japanese garden. After the gardens, we went to the lookout at the top of old government house and it gave us a fantastic view of the city. Down the hill and on the other side of the Tasman Bridge was the Great Moscow Circus. Of course we couldn’t resist and off we went to the circus. The show went for at least two hours and it was amazing. It was 4.00pm and the girls wanted to visit the Cadbury chocolate factory. We arrived at the factory about 4.30pm and the visitor centre for Cadbury had already closed (sorry girls!!!). We went to Glenorchy for a bit of shopping before returning back to our camp site for dinner.
