Some hotels have funny rules

This weekend we stayed at the Sofitel Hotel in Sydney. While I was looking for note paper to take to Blogopolis I noticed grooves on the page from a previous note. 
Being a snoopy, nosey, amateur detective I decided to work out what the note said. I hunted down a lead pencil and began to carefully shaded over the grooves...
and magically a message started to appear... 
and it read...

"Guests are required to wear clothes when in the hallway"

Damn!! I wish I had of know when we booked that they were so weird about things like that (I am joking but the note is real).

I am assuming this must have been left by housekeeping for the previous nudists that accommodated the room. I wish I knew about them earlier. It's a little gross knowing that besides running nude through the halls, they probably sat nude on chairs, leaned nude on the table, made coffee nude etc.

Govindas and Matisse

I admit that sometimes we do need to leave the Peninsula.  We are in a great position because both the city and Sunshine coast are just up the road.

We took a trip into town to have lunch and see the Henri Matisse exhibition at the Gallery of Modern Art (GoMA).  I am not sure what I was more excited about, food or Matisse.  I do love art, but food won.  We went Govindas Vegetarian Restaurant, for a greedy vegetarian girl this is heaven.  Then after eating a lot of food, we walked across the river to GoMA.  Matisse was fantastic, my girls really enjoyed it. They loved 'The Drawing Room' where they had a life model, paper, pencils and plenty of compliments.  But they loved the 'Pip & Pop, Magic Land' and went crazy for 'Yayoi Kusama, The Obliteration Room'. In the Obliteration Room they give everyone dot stickers to go crazy with.  I challenge you to find a place no-one has thought of to place your dot.

Now, my girls are so inspired by Matisse all their drawings are of nudes.  I hope they move onto another artist by the time school resumes.
