Holding the Reins of the Runaway Extrovert 2013: Day 210 - Happy Birthday Beautiful Man! Day 3

A nice sleep-in, and a quick on the run bit to eat as we rushed to get to our 11 a.m. entry to the exhibition on Hollywood Costume at The Australian Centre for the Moving Image (ACMI) at Federation Square.

It was brilliant - famous costumes like Dorothy's blue gingham dress from Wizard of Oz, all sorts of interviews with directors and their favourite costume designers and the actors who wore the outfits they designed and all the information you could want on the subject of costumes in Hollywood.

Detailed, fascinating and we spend 2 1/2 hours taking it all in.

Then a late lunch at Degraves Street at The Quarter ...

Then off to the National Gallery of Victoria to see the exhibition, Matisse's Garden which was magical.

So many paintings along with the rough sketches that led to them and all beautifully explained and curated.

Then back into the City where we stopped into Minotaur so I could buy my Rocky and Bullwinkle bobbleheads before heading to the hotel to collect our stored bags. From there we walked to Southern Cross station to get the SkyBus to the airport and the flight home which took off on time, even getting us to Sydney early, where Fahmi collected us.
