Week 81

L - Autumnal Art - I was in the city on the weekend at the Melbourne Comedy Festival and while we were waiting to go into the show we saw people sticking stuff to a wall. Intrigued after the show we went over to the wall and could see that people had been picking up the Autumn leaves and sticking them to the wall. How I hear you say! Well the wall has a very thin flow of water running down it and the leaves were sticking to it without being flushed away. I am not sure if this was some sort of intentional installation or it just happened by chance. You never know in Melbourne.


R - Freedom Tower - Cheating a little this week due to my illness and am using a photo from last weekend. So we went for a wee look see of the new World Trade Center construction - 1 WTC or Freedom Tower (and to Century 21 of course). It looks like it's about 1/3 done and is going to be huge and shiny and awesome. There is also a little museum where you can go and see the plans for the site, it looks like there are going to be several new buildings and 2 reflection pools in the old footprints of the original towers. It looks like it's going to be awesome down there, shame it has taken so long to get the construction started.
