Museum of Contemporary Art, then home...

Lucky...     Mr. Englishman must have checked out.

We woke around 8 .00am and wandered down toward Star City Casino looking for a new breakfast venue. The Casino surrounds were surprisingly dead (compared to Crown) with only one cafe open but a little further along was an excellent one servicing the surrounding office blocks. It had the best coffee we had tasted thus far.

Taxi back to Circular Quay to the Museum of Contemporary Art, currently showing two exhibitions - one of delicate drawings by a young Australian lady of Pakistani descent and the other some very confronting life-size photos and sculptures by Julie Rrap - a lady who liked to undress a lot... It was not the extensive collection we had been expecting - that is housed elsewhere we now know - but Brenda particularly enjoyed the 3D works of the second display.

And that was about as much as the legs could do after 1000+ stairs yesterday. Back to get our bags, off to Mascot, on to a delayed flight home and home to children, house and those dogs who still love me.

Commendations to Hilary on the pristine state of the house!

But wait... No early night! There was barely a two hour turn-around before Missy Higgins' concert at the tennis centre! Compliments of FoxFM this time!

It has been a good week.
