museums, or places that hold the art i want to steal















The Metropolitan Museum
...................................................................
where the old lost treasures of the world are new

Emily and I traveled to the Metropolitan museum and I saw everything that i have learned of in books. and studied for years and years. The tombs of pharaohs the statues of antiquities. And massive paintings of the nobles of france. i only wish i'd taken my sketch book. i found a fantastic necklace that i know Kayla would love.



Penny also loved the room that depicted a water temple from Egypt where there was an enormous body of water full of shinny pennies. She kept pointing at them and smiling. On an island in the middle we able to walk through a temple doorway. We hung out there as my feet were killing me! the Met is enormous, we became lost several times and could have spent two weeks or more inside and found more to look at.
