Ok, i have lots of pics to show, but i'm on my mobile phone and can't seem to upload pics, so they will have to wait until i can get to a real computer.
After 10 days in Glenelg, South Australia, we are now in Sydney for 3 days. In fact, I am writing this in the lobby of the Four Points Darling Harbour. It's our last day. It's raining outside and we want to go to The Rocks (Sydney Opera House) but the showers really are quite heavy.
Yesterday was pretty special. At noon we visited the NSW Art Gallery to see the Picasso Exhibition. Superb. Two things struck me - the scale of the paintings (either remarkably small or stunningly huge) and the use of colour. One normally notices Picasso's manipulation of the picture plane, but it was the subtle and clever use of colour which i found most striking.
In the evening we went to see a musical - "Annie". Featuring my one and only daughter Samantha!! The musical was fabulous, songs and sets memorable. And we went to the stage door afterwards where Sam introduced us to Anthony Warlowe, Alan Jones etc. A very special night. And one proud father!
Ok, that's all for now. Waiting for the sun. More later
