Adored watching the antics of these monkeys in Launceston's City Park when I lived in northern Tasmania...

Launceston v Hobart...
I've been in both Launceston+Hobart many times. In all fairness, I feel the diffusion of light round buildings may generate a perspective of Launceston's 'nicer buildings'. The closeness of Hobart's dark buildings seems to water down the light flow. Not so in hilly Launceston.
