While Bruce was at the conference today, I set out down Rundle Mall to the Botanic Gardens. At 10:00 am, a group of us set out on the excellent three hour chocolate walking tour of the city , on which many samples were consumed. After a visit to the Visitor Information Centre and a chat to the ladies there, I walked over to the Crowne Plaza Hotel to say hello to Bruce.
Mid afternoon, I set off to do some more exploring on foot, including a visit to the Art Gallery where I saw very interesting exhibitions of work by Dorrit Black and Mortimer Menpes. The gallery had work by my favourites - Tom Roberts, Grace Cossington Smith, John Brack.
