Sigh {hobart}


Did i ever mention i got offered a job {twice} in a gallery in Salamanca? Unfortunately circumstances would not allow me to take it, the second time was two weeks after i had my little girl....oh well there must have been a reason to stay on the N/W coast.
I love Hobart, i adore Salamanca. I love its dress sense, i love its art, i love its uniqueness.
I don't like its hot and cold snobby waitresses however....attitude much??

I love Cold Rock ice cream...


I finally made it to MONA. I already need to go back. I have this fear i missed something. The building was amazing, the scenery gob-smacking, the art work...well the art work leaves me confused.



This truck outs side of MONA had to be my favorite. So elaborate - so solid.

 There was lots of shenanigans, eating out and sore heads.

I found out a retro fair was on {how convenient}, next time i feel like we should do a Stitch n Bitch girls trip to see it {nice excuse for a get away anyway}. Most of the stall holders were from Melbourne...quite disappointing they couldn't get more Tassie's on side. The dresses were amazing but WAAAY out of my price range. I found my dream coat...not in my size..not in my price range {by a long shot} and i will think about it often. The coat will be come my white elephant...i need to find one for me....soon!
The retro fair even had an exhibition featuring clothes and stories from some of the survivors of the Titanic. The entry fee was worth seeing just that.
I found a vinnies stores open on Saturday!!! Then i had the most amazing score..this massive curtain for $4.50. SCORE!!!!
I need more than a weekend down there. I love that place. Thankyou again Hobart..till next time

What an amazing trip. I don't like the weird people watching at Salamanca though. I love the cafes but the wankers who sit there checking out people to see if they are checking them out....uggh. Bizzare. Adore MONA and want to go again soon too. Lucky retro fair too.
