Have not visited a major museum (other than the Getty) in recent years. Almost forgot what it is like to see great art.
Nice work. I came across your blog while “blog surfing” using the Next Blog button on the blue Nav Bar located at the top of my blogger.com site. I frequently just travel around looking for other blogs which exist on the Internet, and the various, creative ways in which people express themselves. Thanks for sharing.
Oh.......wow! really great pictures. I like it too much & enjoyed it.
