Melbourne, Monday, 31/07/06
The weather was rather inclement - in fact it was raining. However, undeterred, the human and our Melbourne hosts ventured forth for an afternoon of culture.
We visited the National Gallery of Victoria and saw the Picasso: Love and War 1935 - 1945 exhibition, which covered the period that Picasso meet Dora Maar and the work they produced during this pre and war period, including, of course, Picasso's great anti-war work Guernica.
In the evening, my human treated our hosts, Steve, Jeni, their daughter Caitlin and Steve's mum Betty to a meal. The original plan was to have Spanish tapas at the Robbie Burns Hotel (where else?) but transport logistics meant we ended up eating Italian at Pacino's.
It was rather disconcerting to have a meal in a restaurant covered in Al Pacino movie posters but fortunately the food was excellent.
