MONA (Museum of Old and New Art) where Porno becomes arts

 MONA was opened on January 2011 by David Walsh 
who made his millions out of gambling.

We bought tickets for the museum and the ferry.
It takes about half an hour from Hobart to the museum.
Museum is free for the locals.





There are 99 steps to the entrance of the museum from the ferry.

But, there are golf buggy cars available for those
who are old or have cardiac condition from the second wharf.


Room of mirrors
Bit dizzy...


There are few porno videos, sculptures, statues, Photos 
and plasters of sexual organ displayed as a form of art.






































Museum entrance where people take elevator to go down
and walk up to finish.


Pleasant water view from the museum 




Parking lots for David Walsh and his wife cars.
Their cars must be Tesla!




Friend we bumped into in Hobart who 
happened to be on our ferry to the museum, too.
How coincident!
Catching up time!


There is a winery and wine bar.








Ferry back to Hobart


Ovation of the Seas docked in Hobart harbour.

Last time when I was in Hobart was more than 15 years ago.
I am really glad that I was able to visit the museum this time.
It is quite interesting to experience the displays!

Next and the last port for this cruise is Adelaide, capital of South Australia.
