Ps 1 : I hope you enjoyed my article, dear friends. There are more to write, since this is a post only for the MET on Fifth Avenue. However, you ll find links in my post in order to click on and to visit the MET Cloisters and the MET Breuer.
Ps 2 : When at NYC, and when at MET, do not forget, to spare a dime and to buy gifts for your family, your friends, and for Thyself ! The Met Store is a wonderful store. You ll find an interesting variety of different kind of things to buy. Especially, you ll find wonderful books. An upcoming article of mine will be on this topic. Until then, though, you may click on the following link to take a look : THE MET STORE
Thank you for passing by, dear friends. For your wonderful comments, and for liking Outosego. My best wishes for great health, happiness and longevity. Let me play a song.
haha… wonderful moons, though, Jonathan. Same building. A wonderful one, of course, in terms of architecture. Exhibitions, things and stuff, they come and they go. Same wonderful routine.
Oh, MOMA is another interesting and wonderful place (institute or museum… lol) for someone to visit. Thank you for your comment, Nyri.
Ps : if you have an article on Moma, paste it here. I’m interested. I, always, share these articles and i place them to my travel and museum magazines with a direct link to the blogger. Take care and enjoy, Nyri.
You just made me think about the pictures I took the day I went to the museum. I need to find them because it was a day worth blogging about most definitely!
Oh, Victoria, you’ re lucky, dear ! Cloisters is wonderful ! If you have an article related to the Cloisters, you may paste it here, Victoria. I’m interested. And i will share your article. Additionally, i will place it to my travel and museum magazines with a direct link to your blog. Thank you, again, Victoria, for your comment. Take care and enjoy.
No problem, Victoria. I already know you’re bilingual (at least) . This is why we have the translation button, dear… lol… to click on the language of our preference and to read the news, or your wonderful content in your articles ! Whoever is interested is gonna use the translation button. Thank you, Victoria.
I, also, think, Victoria, you should go to your account settings and change the primary blog of yours, and to write your new address of your website. Because when someone clicks on your gravatar, he might think your blog is not available anymore.
No problem, Victoria. I observe things, because i write a guide on the topic “wordpress”, and this is why i have a category of mine dedicated to the “Blocked Blogger”. Enjoy !
You’ re absolutely right, Sheree. I’m lucky, since i’m able to visit it frequently. I like art a lot. Additionally, i feel relaxed and peaceful when i visit the place. Thank you for passing by, and for your comment. I wish you are doing great.
Definitely a fabulous museum to visit!

Thank you! My fav part of Met museum is Cloisters, it’s a small medieval castle (and it’s not far from my house, which makes it even better!)
