On Monday at 8:15am we started our trip to Launceston. Our first visit along the way was Cataract Gorge. We first went on a walk to check out the flood and then some of us went on the chair lift. We then went to Riverbend park for lunch and had a bit of a play, afterwards we got onto the bus and drove a bit longer to the Launceston Aquatic Centre and they opened up the water slide just for us! That night we stayed at the Penny Royal Leisure Inn. It was a bit creepy as most of us heard creaks.

The next morning, we left for breakfast at 7:30am to have a questionable breakfast of waffles, bacon and ice cream drowned in maple syrup. At 9:30am we ended up at Hollybanks Tree Tops Adventure! There were many different courses to go on but we went on the rope course with 5 different courses of Rosella Rush (green), Brumby Run (blue) Tassie Two Step (blue) and Turbo Chook (red). There was a black course but pretty much all of us were to young to go on it.

We then headed off to Hobart but on our way we dropped into Ross' Bakery for lunch. We continued to Hobart, when we arrived at River Front motel we got sorted into our rooms by the sorting hat (not actually) then we had a bit of a break and also got ready for dinner. For dinner we had a beef schnitzel with salad. After dinner we went bowling!!! We left bowling at 9 and went to bed at 9:30pm.

On Wednesday we went on a long drive to Port Arthur, had a small tour and then went on a small cruise there to see different parts of it we couldn’t reach by foot. Then we went to the Unzoo which was luckily only a few minutes away. We got to pet some kangaroos and go on a small tour to see the tassie devils and some birds.

On Thursday we went to Bounce and Eastlands Shopping Centre. At Bounce some of us went on the rock-climbing section and the obstacle course. There were 2 diving boards and a trampoline that lands into a massive air pillow. There were 2 trampoline sections a dodgeball bit and a normal trampoline. Bounce was fun. After Bounce we went shopping and we went to Big W first then we got split up into groups. A lot of boys got nerf guns and some people got a speaker and we stayed up really late.

On Friday we went to breakfast then packed up heading on our way to school. We stopped in Hobart to play mini golf. We split up into groups of four and played mini golf. Some people played mini golf inside or we played it outside. People said it was harder outside because there were more hills and harder to get in the hole. After mini golf we headed back to school. It was a very long drive back to school. We stopped at some shops to get drinks, soon after we were back on the road. Many people fell asleep so Miss Nicholls was happy because she got photos. We got back to school at 5:45pm, 15 minutes after we planned.
