museum weekending

any weekend that involves a trip 

to a museum,

is a great one in my book.

this weekend we visited two.

today..steve and i snuck out

for a bit.

there was an antique fair on 

the champs elysees that 

i've been wanting to see.

it was a beautiful but very 

high end antique fair.

i bought a book.

:)

we walked across to the 

petite palais and had a visit.

it was a quick tour

but so many beautiful pieces

of art.

the building itself is a work of art.

built for the 1900 World's Fair..

right across the street from

her big brother..

the grand palais..

which was closed today.

loved her..

carrying her baguettes.

it was a lovely visit.

and nice for steve and i 

to get out alone.

not great of will..

but it was FREEZING

and he would only pose for one.

saturday, will and i went on 

a tour of the museum of arts and sciences

it was through his school and it

was a nice day for will and i 

to get out together.

this was such an interesting museum!

and so great to do with a tour guide.

we learned so much.

this is the original model of

the statue of liberty.

the very first camera.

this camera filmed the first 

movie projected.

did you see the movie hugo?

clement ader's bat like plane..

got off the ground 13 years before the wright brothers.

this lion and snake are made

completely out of glass.

i love weekends at a museum.
