In order to avoid being at home, after Elder's appointment we took a tram to Docklands and wandered around. It's a brisk day for it but we had fun at the Docklands park (the one on Harbour Esplanade with the trees on top of the grassy knoll and the wind spinny thing).
In all, I'm pretty impressed with the public art and green spaces in this city. It leads me to ask this question of the DT: what is your favourite piece of public art in Melbourne?
Like you said this morning. The cheese sticks.
I think my parents used to call it Kennet's Erection.
Edit: Just had a fun memory of being at a party at an apartment that overlooked this and the red poles as well and one (high as a kite) girl was telling another (even higher) girl about how the red poles were intercepting sound waves and protecting our brains.
