Day 2 (addendum)

One of the coolest exhibits was a collection of instruments. Here, for example, is what I like to call "Cello for beginners". At least it's easy to tune:

Also interesting was this violin/guitar hybrid... slightly cooler than the guitarmadillo which I'm not posting today:

And, of course, Dory's next birthday present... the most elaborate harpsichord I have ever seen:

These instruments were precariously close to the arms and armor section of the museum. For some reason, this guy stood out. It was as if he caught you wandering through the museum and was about to ask you what you were doing shuffling about making fun of the mustaches on the samurai masks:

Oh yeah... there were some famous pieces of pop art here, too. Like this coffee logo:

After taking a look at the arms and armor, we strolled around Central Park, where people were totally psyched about the warm weather.
