Vaka Moana

It was a lovely sunny day, so we took a trip to the National Museum of Australia to see Vaka Moana a free exhibition charting human settlement in the Pacific Islands. It was a really nicely presented exhibition and pretty interesting.

It's always tricky trying to read/look at things with a couple of kids in tow, but Audrey became fascinated/distracted by shadows cast on the floor by one of the display lights and Eli fell asleep, so we managed to catch the general gist of the exhibition.

Afterwards we enjoyed a picnic lunch in the seats overlooking Burley Griffin (no sign of the Burley Beast though).

the excitement of mirrored glass!
