Sun 15 August 2004 - Show me the Monet!
The Impressionists at the National Gallery Victoria. Some quite outstanding works, and in a variety of styles and subjects, certainly enough to keep me (and the rest of the crowd) interested for a good 3 hours of wandering around. Definitely worth a look, even if you’re a relative philistine like me.
(Busy weekend. Well, kinda. Okay so not really. But for whatever reason, I didn’t get around to taking a Here Is My pic. Unless I’m inspired in the next few hours, it’ll wait until next weekend.)

Ooohh… but I want to go to that. Just don’t want to be with the rest of Melbourne and their mother’s dog when I go. Hate crowds.

Daniel: Yeah, great exhibition - I saw it yesterday: http://john.carney.id.au/index.php?page=home&blogid=49
Ren: I don’t know that you’re going to be able to avoid the crowds. You could avoid queueing by booking tickets online.

Seen it and marvelled at how those old painters managed to paint in 3D.
