AUSTRALIAN PMP TRIP BUSES GALORE

I suppose this was about as good as it got in Tasmania, the day trip to Hobart was dogged by poor weather, the driver of the tour bus was friendly as was the lass in the internet cafe, otherwidse other than a wave from a lady driver they were the most unfriendly bunch of Australians south of Parramatta. Livery was a bit uninspiring as well but most Oz bus liveries are a bit on the all white side
A day in Tasmania was more than enough. Two bus companies run out of town services , one is part of the municipal operation the other also runs the airport shuttle. No public transport proper to the airport though.
back in Melbourne at the Irish pub near our Saville apartment hotel which was pretty good.
One of many independent operators buses on Saturday rail replacement services in Sydney, quite a variety of vehicles and close to our hotel on George Sr, another Saville, small but not too noisy. We saw an Atlantean on the last day, I presume from Tempe museum.
