05/08/17 - Day 35 - Manhattan - Metropolitan Musuem
Made my first visit to this Met this day.
Located on the eastern border of Central Park, it's the largest museum in U.S. with over 2 million works. It so big I spend about three and half hours and only made it through half of the first floor and the rooftop. Started in the Ancient Egypt exhibition before moving on to early American and medieval weapons and armor.
Ancient Egypt
Yup, gold flip flop
The Book of the Dead, basically an instruction manual for the afterlife.
The "Weighing of the Heart" ritual, where the deceased was led by the god Anubis into the presence of Osiris for judgement
The Temple of Dendur
The American Wing
They had a few recreations of 19th century rooms on display.
Ancient Weapons and Armor
Finally, the rooftop garden
Will have to back to see the rest of it next week.
In the evening I made a trip out to Brooklyn to watch a friend compete in shuffleboard. It was an impressive victory
And the teams had a few clever names
