Cleveland Art Museum and coming home

The kids were so looking forward to going to the Art Museum.  They do an artist study at school and wanted to see their actual art works.

Had to take a picture of the frog goddess for Uncle E.

One of Declan's favorite paintings.  It was displayed with a painting of the inside of the Pantheon.  Supposed to make you think....

 The kids really liked the armor room.


One of Declan's favorite paintings in terms of a painting that is of an actual thing.  He is really of fan of abstract art.


 The kids study Monet in kindergarten are reproduce Water Lilies.  So cool to see the real thing or at least part of it.  Declan wanted to get up close to the signature.

We went to the art museum with my friend Dennis...picture taken by Declan at lunch.  Both Declan and Dennis were disappointed that the contemporary section of the museum was closed for renovation. No Jackson Pollock.

Here we are on our ride home.  Don't those seats look luxurious?  That is because we were in first class.  Our flight was delayed and most of the passengers were moved off the flight because they were going to miss their connection.  With only 7 of us on the flight, they put us all in first class.  The kids thought this was incredible!
 Picture with our singing flight attendant!

In the cockpit.  They were besides themselves with excitement.  We knew Daddy was going to be sad he missed it.

Great ending to a fun trip to Cleveland.  Back to warm weather.

Sounds like a great trip! I'm so envious of your trip to the art museum. I spent hours there in college.
