SUNDAY - last day with rene, sayaka and cal, we had a last breakfast together in a good little restaurant a short walk from the apartment, then i had cal for the afternoon before rene took me to namba station to catch the airport train. flight home was easy, two films and a nap, then the flight from gold coast to melbourne.
nice to watch these schoolkids at the airport actually playing cards instead of staring at mobile phones.
and reading for god's sake!
amazing colours

MONDAY - sunny picked me up at tullamarine and we went to the costume exhibitionat ACMI and checked out shaun tan's 'lost thing' exhbition too. a great double -i've looked forward to the hollywood costume exhbition for ages and it was great, some fabulous clothes and i liked the way it was put together - but disappointing that the clothes weren't on floor level, i really wanted to get a sense of how big the actors actually were and it just didn't come across, john wayne and russell crowe were next to each other but were on different floor levels. no idea of comparitive heights although i know theres a big difference.

| I was lucky that my morning in elwood cooincided with a brunch that friends from the brighton baths were having - so i got to catch up with them all then off across town for the long haul out to bayswater (boy i hate that trip) to pick up tiles for the bathroom, worth the drive though. Now i'm in bed at friend chris's, i've had dinner here with chris and ian, good to see them and to be invited to bali in february for chris's significant birthday. that'll be fun. |
