Home again home again jiggidy jig






I had a lovely time in Bondi, Sydney. my very short (less than 24 hours) trip.
It was lovely to see my aunt and her exhibition was amazing.
And I could resist while I was there, a trip to Kinokuniya Books, in central Sydney, which is not only huge but has a wonderful and large collection of both English and Japanese craft books. I was very tempted by very restrained ( walked out empty handed)

The highlight however was spotted outside the gallery , in what I thought was an abandoned guy, but nothing less the a cultured bear scupture.

As always however it's so nice to be home. I'm hopeless, I was far more excited coming home than going. Lets just say I'm a big fan of grey old, dumpy old Melbourne, my hometown, and driving back from the airport I could not wipe the smile off my face.
