The best laid plans of all travellers occasionally go awry. When I booked my return flights from Adelaide to Hobart I expected to have about a two hour layover in Melbourne as there are no direct flights to Hobart. However, the airline had other ideas, cancelling my flight and forcing me to catch one later in the afternoon.
So what do you do during a five hour airport layover? Eat, drink coffee, read, catch up with emails and, if you are a blogger, take photographs. Here is my day at Tullamarine airport.

Born in England in 1957 my family came to Australia in 1966. I grew up in Adelaide, South Australia, where I met and married my husband David. We came together over a mutual love of trains. Both of us worked for the railways for many years, his job was with Australian National Railways, while I spent 12 years working for the STA, later TransAdelaide the Adelaide city transit system. After leaving that job I worked in hospitality until 2008.
We moved to Tasmania in 2002 to live in the beautiful Huon Valley. David passed away in 2015 and I'm here on my own now but I have Cindy the dog and Polly the cat to keep me company.
I currently co-write two Wordpress blogswith my sister Naomi. Our doll blog "Dolls, Dolls, Dolls", and a "Our Other Blog" which is about everything else but with a focus on photographs and places in Tasmania.
