After our brief fling with history, we went to the Philadelphia Museum of Art where Nick works and took a tour of the Picasso exhibit. I especially enjoyed seeing Marcel Duchamp's Nude Descending a Staircase (No. 2) and Marc Chagall's Half Past Three (The Poet) and a self-portrait of Picasso at 25. Nickopedia joined us as we visited the American wing and other wonderful galleries before heading home: Shaker Furniture, Asian Arts including the refurbished Tea House exhibit, portraits by Thomas Eakins, armor, glass and so much more.....
Dinner was at Zorba's Taverna on Fairmount where we all feasted on wonderful Greek cuisine (my calimari was so tender and tasty), then home and off to bed so we could get up at 5:00 am and head for PHL.
It was fun, fabulous and fast and my only wish is that we could have seen more. Thank you Casey and Nick for making it the best of times. Love you both.
