a photo a day

after my class today, i went to the met!  columbia students get in for free (most other students have to pay a reduced price, but somehow columbia is special), so this was an extra incentive to go.

i learned that tourists like the met.  it was packed with accents from many languages.

the indoor space is set up beautifully - lots of natural light in various atriums (atria?):

two of my favorite pieces of art: this is a crocodile from egypt around the year 0.  i liked him.  i also liked that he got to sit above some water in the egyptian hall.  i bet he likes being near the water.

there was an andy warhol exhibit and this was my favorite piece from it.

i also really liked the matisse and picasso stuff they had, but i forgot to take pictures.  oops.

hooray for a new york adventure on my first day of freedom from school!
