Boxing Day 2012 - Part 2


The real plan for Boxing Day, before getting side tracked by shoepocalypse, was to hit the NGV- National Gallery of Victoria. The NGV has quite a lovely collection of art. Jean particularly enjoyed the mustaches, the large wooden chairs (Amy, stand by those so I can take a picture!), and the fact that one whole gallery was devoted to the apocalypse.









My favorites were the green dragon bowls


We both liked the amazing carving made out of rhinoceros horn and the small gallery with a tribute to Japanese fashion which was a bit Michael Jackson meets Elvis.


On the way back, we thought we'd get a horse drawn carriage, but alas, they all had passengers. So we grabbed the tram, grabbed shoes from my office, grabbed another tram, and had leftover Christmas lasagne for dinner. Yum.
