We strolled by the new WA Museum Boola Bardip in Perth, enjoying the architecture.
Ingo, where is your hat?

Hello, Iris
The museum is beautiful, I like the reflections and modern architecture. I guess the sight of cranes is a sign of progress and a good economy. I remember the Montgomery Stores, they have been closed for decades now. The museum has a nice bird exhibit and I love the Black Swan. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a great weekend. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
One of my roommates in Thailand in 1969 was from Perth. She was very white, that's for sure.
Angry birds!
...too often the old gets engulfed by the new!
Thank you, Eileen, more birds are on the way. Yes Perth is always growing!
I´ve never heard of Montgomery Stores.
Yes, in Australia the sun is a killer. Always wear sunscreen and a hat.
Dead birds ;-)
Yes, in Perth they take care to combine or integrate. They preserve the old.
The museum is stunning, I especially love the interplay of light and reflections.
Most Excellent Museum There My Dear
Be Well ,
Cheers
Memories of your trips to Australia seem to be a big part of your blogging identity. I hope you are able to make more trips soon to add to these thoughts and images… mae at maefood.blogspot.com
It's always such a good experience to visit a museum. Love the photos you've shared!
It is good that they kept the old building, Iris.
I love the reflections of the glass. Ever changing art.
Yes, and more is to come!
It´s brand new (well, to me - first time pre-Covid, first time after 5 long, whopping years, dear friend.
More to come, cheers
Well, usually we went every two years ... and then Covid hit.
Plus ... with the digital cameras...
Australia 1999 - 7 months- 413 pics. On film.
Yes, thank you, more is to come!
Yes, Perth and Suburbs always take care.
So yips!
A top notch and beautiful museum.
I'd love to see more of that museum. The architecture is very cool! We had a bit of snow today. Hope your weather was sunny and not too cold. hugs-Erika
Very nice museum and reflections. I wonder about the numbers of people shopping in that photo. Did they all come in for some sort of promtional sale? surely there wouldn't normally be that many women all at once?
I saw on Facebook that someone had made a snow lion! Reminded me of your Henry.
Nice museum, but sad birds :/
Yes, all new!
I´ll show more :-)
Aw, wee, -1C/ 30F, cloudy... hope yours is warmer, hugs
Yes, looks like some kind of promotion sale, maybe pre-Tupper Ware?
Ohhh, a snow lion! I sadly missed that!
