Being Metropolitan
Frankie and I went to the Met today. That's the Metropolitan Museum Of Art, don't ya know. I haven't been in ages. Can't even remember the last time I've been. I really wanted to see the Roman exhibition, and after that, we wandered our way through the Egyptian rooms, then on to Chinese and Japanese art before checking out just a small portion of the European paintings. A little medieval art, then down to rest in front of the tomb, then a quick peek at the small American section and then it was back home again. Phew! And we barely saw half of what was available. Plus, a good chunk of the medieval art section was closed off, and that was the cool part with the armor and whatnot. You can take pictures of the permanent exhibits, but no flash allowed, so some of my shots didn't really come out that well. But you can see them over on my flickr page.
