Craig Kidd: an Anniversary in Hobart

Craig Kidd sent us this lovely note expressing his thoughts about his recent Tasmanian holiday.  As he specifically wanted to thank everyone who made his anniversary Tassie trip so memorable, we thought we’d better pass it on!

Hi

My name is Craig Kidd.  I am a FT Hospitality & Event Management Teacher for TAFE NSW.  I actually work on the same campus as one of your writers Roger Findlay.

My wife took me to Tasmania (Hobart) recently for our 22nd anniversary.  When I discovered where we were heading I must admit I had mixed feelings regarding our destination.  However once we landed I had to eat my words as I fell immediately in love with Hobart; the culture, history, food and wine.  I definitely will be heading back to Tasmania to explore Australia’s best tourist destination!

To all the local Tasmanians who went out of their way to help, assist, smile and provide the best customer service I have experienced in a very long time… my thanks.  Why people are not arriving by the plane load to live in Tassie is beyond me!

Regards

Craig Kidd

We love to hear from anyone about their holiday in Hobart; or in fact any part of the state.  People particularly love to read about the Tasmanian regional areas; a unique experience and meeting the locals.

    And guess what! Craig couldn’t believe that pints of beer were so popular. He told me how much he liked Knopwoods. Maybe we can all meet there for a special session, Pints are my speciallity!

    I talk to quite a few people from Albury Wodonga who visit Tassie & seldom hear a bad word.

    Chek out Kafe Kara in Liverpool St., Hobart. In the next couple of weeks, it will be owned by Alburyites.

Gee thanks…

Your site and news gets better and better every time I receive a newsletter. The topics are so diverse and the photography superb. I am amazed at the number of Tasmanians, including new Tasmanians, who wish to share their knowledge with everyone. It is very generous of them. All the best.

Wow, this e-zine is fantastic! I'm very impressed. You manage to cover a lot of ground really well; if I didn't live here already, I'd definitely want to, or at least to have an extended visit, based on your articles and information.

I forgot how many great places we have to visit close to Launceston. Thanks for the reminder.
