Wolfsonian

Didn't want to walk too far today so we went to the Wolfsonian art collection. It's mostly 1 man's collection of American art and design with travelling exhibitions. We liked the 1920's-50's design gallery best

Sunday-Super Bowl Sunday....we thought places would be quiet but as the kick-off wasn't til 6.30 ET everywhere was still pretty busy. 
Wandered along Lincoln Rd Mall this morning checking out the antiques stalls  (more like bric-a -brac to us) and the small Farmers' Market.  Then we visited the Holocaust Memorial.  Although I used to teach it I now find it impossible to look at the images, even though I've probably seen them all before.  The horror doesn't lessen, no matter how often/long I'm exposed to it.

Our cat-sitters are keeping us well informed on things back home and seem to be having a good time- despite snow there today!  Apparently it's now gone and they should have sun tomorrow.  Jaqsmina is making free with Liz's lap and knitting( I should perhaps have warned her that Jassie can't resist a dangling thread)
We have to be up early tomorow so I've packed and we'll just stay in and watch a Borgen episode, downloaded from BBC IPlayer
