    An absolute must when visiting the mountains. The gallery is a little pricey, but the proceeds…read moresupport the upkeep of the estate so just pretend you're donating to a cause. Take a cliff top stroll around the property and visit the pool. It's so hot today, I wish there was water in it... Also a lovely cafe on site for a bite to eat.

    Norman Lindsay's a bit of a love him or hate him kind of figure. Try and guess where I fall…read more You can't hit an antique store in the Mountains without being presented with some gravity-defying breasts courtesy of Mr Lindsay. Leading proponent of Art as An Excuse to Paint Lots of Naked Women and Satyrs, Lindsay's better known these days for 'The Magic Pudding', the somewhat anarchic children's classic. This museum is located in his house and is run by the National Trust. Tickets are a little pricey at $12 for adults, $10 concessions, $6 kids and families for $30. And if rampant boobs and lecherous mythological figures are your thing (and really, it's so weird it is worth seeing) this makes for in interesting stopover. My favourite spot is the painting studio in the gardens, set up as he might have left it (sans nude models), bringing an interestingly personal touch. He built model ships in his spare time. Who knew? I've heard rumours about Lindsay's behaviour amongst oldtimers up here that'd make a reality tv star with one of THOSE tapes blush. It's an odd feeling to see kids getting their faces painted in the same grounds where all those artistically-licensed shenanigans went on. There's an annual children's literature festival held here, and the odd concert in the grounds too. And lots of boobs. Did I mention that?
