A while back I remember seeing an advertisment on the back of a DW pamphlet for "dreamworlds antarctic adventure", it was located in Hobart. Has anyone ever been there? what was it like? and is it still open today?

Antarctic Adventure was located in the historical Salamanca Place in Hobart, which is one of the 'touristy' areas of the city. I remember seeing it a few years back when I was down in Tasmania. I didn't go in because, to be honest, it looked pretty dull. It was basically a lot of exhibits of camp sites, models of explorers, and that sort of thing which have to do with expeditions in Antarctica. The "highlight" was supposedly a "cold room" which simulated the temperatures that adventurers had to endure in that area of the world. Was basically a more educational, museum-ish style of attraction. I assume it wasn't very popular, as it closed in November 2003.

it sounds similar to the thing they had at southbank when that opened up here. i only went in it cos for 1 week they were giving away free passes to it
