while you're ahead…

Last day.Horrid weather.  Drenching.  Grey.  Dark. (New York has always got a certain charm but I didn’t have the right shoes that’s for sure…)

So after packing up our suitcases we decided to go to a museum;  and what a remarkably unoriginal idea it turned out to be.

The Moma was the closest so armed with hotel umbrellas we walked the 0.3 miles… oh boy.  I have never been to a busier place, you literally had to queue to look at paintings!  Bonkers.

Still, though, the fashion exhibition was very interesting (weird to see so many item of clothing from my own closet in a museum… am I that old already?)

And the art… well the art is always amazing, I’m quite good at retreating in my own bubble and ignore the world, so I enjoyed the visit regardless of the crowds.  If you’ve seen my instagram video you know what I mean.

These were my favourite pieces:

Pablo Picasso

Sonia Delauney-Terk

Henry Matisse

Paul Klee

Lyubov Popova

Franz Kline

Mark Rothko

Jackson Pollock

Andrew Wyeth

Charles Sheeler

Edward HopperEllsworth Kelly

How good are they?

Crowds or not they were worth the jostling and wait.
