Mona is in my opinion an all day trip, but more than worth a visit, bus one way ferry the other. We had a lovely lunch there.

I visited Mona last year, and half a day was more than enough for me  :P :P  But then I am not particularly into art galleries and museums.  If that is your thing, then it certainly could be an all day trip, but maybe not for everyone.  But I agree that it is definitely worth a visit - even if the "art" doesnt grab you, the architecture of the building is amazing!

But as for Salamanca Markets - definitely an all-day trip in my book!

Unfortunately I wont be able to make it to Hobart next year though.  Too many work trips on the calendar already  :-))

I am sorely tempted by the thought of a Hobart Forum Fest as I have never been there.  DH and I are heading there for the first time over the Melbourne Cup weekend this year but I have a sneaking suspicion we may be in Taiwan about October next year.  Will have to wait until we have the October meeting dates before I can commit to anything else, though ... fingers are crossed.

I am only just reading this thread for the first time.  Don't know how I have missed it. Put me down please.  I'll worry about logistics, money etc. later!

Sadly,I think we will be in Europe however if our plans change I will be there.
I strongly urge anyone who can go, to attend, the destination isn't really as important as the wonderful people you will meet.

Please add my name to the list.

I've never been to Tasmania, but my DH has been a few times.  We were actually talking about going there this year, but we just didn't get around to organising it.  DH made a comment last night about how the forum girls would probably start to organise next year’s get together soon, so I told him they already had!  He said we should plan our trip around the dates, go to the retreat and then visit the rest of the places in Tassie we want to see. 

I didn't even have to suggest it, it was all his idea.  That's how much fun he had at the Adelaide retreat dinner on Saturday night  :D

I'll probably go over early as my DGD turns 18 on the 19th October and spend some time with her and my family. The weather should be good then but you can get all seasons in a day. It snowed in Hobart one Christmas years ago.
