In practically every scenery view of the city where local residents post there will always be water view at the background. The city is similar to bay city status as shared by Vancouver in Canada and Auckland in New Zealand.


Hobart's Water View Hobart is surrounded by water .This is a simple upshot of my the window view which I took from my kitchen. Its a view on oil depot at entrance point of the huge Derwent river.



Here is a photo of my friend's yacht which I never have time to board. Most of my friends are rich and I am poor. I only service them for the food I cook. They are basically my regular customers. His yacht is named after his wife 'Jeanette'

Yacht Club and Society- Some of the boats pictures I took on a stroll down river Derwent. Sailing boats are a familiar sight during summer in Hobart Bay when water sports is at its height


The mighty river Derwent again where Bellerive sprawling suburb is just visible in the foreground. Most Hobartians gather around both side of the shores to witness the final stage of Sydney to Hobart yacht Race during Christmas and New Year festive period.

Hobart City. Hobart is a small capital city of the island state of Tasmania, which is just an hour flight away south of Melbourne in Australia. It has a population of 185,000, a university, a casino but little heavy industry. Rural farming still features strongly in export trade. Currently there is no external link with international air routes. The domestic airport is mainly serviced by regulars’ flight from Adelaide Melbourne and Sydney. Tourists generally shy away in winter and throng thru the place in summer when the weather is warmer and when the 'Sydney-Hobart' sailing yacht race is on.
