More pics

As promised.




These two next pics made me laugh quite hard when I was there. The first is the photo and the second is the explanation.



Oriental side of the Met:




The outside of this monster:


Some Egyptian pieces:




I love this pic...


American and European side (furniture, sculptures, smaller pieces):






Here you need something in Hebrew (Georgia O'Keeffe, of course):
אם נצטט את החמישיה הקאמרית - "מה אתה רואה כאן?" "כוס". "ומה כאן?" "כוס". "וכאן?" "כוס"...



This is my favorite photo from the Met.




Chelsy Market:

Awesome pictures, and that plastic surgery story is priceless.

the Egyptian area with the temples and the glass walls/ceiling? My father helped install that place (lighting, etc) and said he was there as they were hauling everything in, even some of the mummies!

That is so cool! That part looks amazing, and being able to be there to see everything frsh and new (well, yes, 5000 year old mummies aren't exactly new, but still)... Incredible.
