trip to the spy museum AND
the Freer Gallery
For Rachel's birthday we took a trip to
Washington. We stayed at the Helix hotel
which has a Pop-art type of theme. The highlight of the trip was the Freer gallery's
"Kiyochika, Master of the night" show.
It featured wood block prints of Tokoyo at the end of the 19th century. We also visited the museum of American art and the natural history
museum. The spy museum was interesting
if not overpriced (it cost us $47 for admission)
I don't think it was worth the money.
That painting with the woman and the girl is one of my favorites. We couldn't take pictures in the Kiyochika exhibit. And the hotel came equipped with animal print robes! (Just in case you thought I owned one. I do not.) The Spy Museum was very overpriced. If we did it again, I would skip the interactive section and go to the section with all the real-life case studies.
