Lots To See
My sister and I visited the Metropolitan Museum of Art today. We spent 6 hours looking at different exhibits. Some exhibits we wanted to see were temporarily closed which was disappointing. The Costume Institute is usually a favorite of ours but it was closed today as were a few other exhibits. We did see Pierre Bonnard's work, post impressionism, Impressionism, Modern Art, African Art, Greek and Roman art and European art. My favorite is always the Impressionists. I have framed posters of a couple of the authentic works we saw today. The "real thing" is definitely superior although I still love my posters. It was a fun day, but exhausting. I'm glad to be home with my feet up. This visit today will "hold" me for awhile. I'm not a city person although I love the cultural offerings you can see there. There's too much traffic and too many people. Give me the country life.
