I Like My Apples Big...O__o

     Just the getting to New York was a great experience. Here I thought I was going to get a little sleep but sitting next to Kimberly, I should have known better (love you Kim :) ). That was great. Had some sisterly bonding time with Kim and Maria and that was nice :) When we first rolled into Manhattan, it didn't seem like much special until you saw all the buildings that really do scrape the sky. Watching the people interact with each other seemed so...everything felt like a movie. There was something mesmerizing about the whole thing. Besides that, immediately I could see that everyone in New York was very fashion forward and had a sort of confidence that was different than the people in Philly. I like the atmosphere that New York has and there's something about it that makes you just want to get out and become more adventurous. Something in the air I guess ;)
     When we first got to the museum, I went inside and then had to go back outside again because you can't take food inside. Its kind of funny because when the guard asked what the long wrapped up thing was in my bag, he looked at me funny when I told him it was a hoagie. Immediately I remembered that New Yorkers say the word "sub" lol! While I was outside sitting on the stairs eating my lunch, a male quartet was just coming up about to perform. They were really good and made my day just that much better. I almost regret not getting a CD.

     Inside, I had to cross all of Egypt to get to the bathroom, which was interesting. Something caught me off guard. The Egyptian exhibit is dimly lit with all of the warm colored artifacts. I turned the a corner and instantly that was tons of light and something beautiful. It was strange because I had felt as though I had been there before. That's when it hit me that this was the exact place where Will Smith filmed a scene for the movie I Am Legend.

Will Smith sat right on that ledge there!

What was just as interesting as the artwork was the architecture of the building. Every corner held a thrill that I wasn't prepared for and I loved it.

Uuuuuuuhhh, can we say Perspective...? lol

Let there be...Light!

Can I just say that the lighting in here was amazing. Perfect for taking pictures. The Greeks really knew  how to create the ideal hahaha

This is on the 2nd floor coming right off the elevator. This has to be my favorite :) 

     Before we went to the Met Museum, I had one thing in mind that I really wanted to see and that was a piece by Tomas Saraceno on the roof. So towards the end of walking around and seeing almost everything, a friend of mine that I met up with at the museum, him and I ventured up to take a look. Wish granted!

The people standing around it look so tiny. Its a shame that you needed a ticket to climb the stairs they have inside.

Now grant it that it was a teeny bit humid but the view up there was still amazing...
