Philadelphia Museum of Art - Part 4




In all honesty... the building itself is quite beautiful.


This is a comb.


This is a stupid sideways stove/fireplace


The entrance to the Mines of Moria


Which apparently leads you to a Spanish courtyard. Something tells me the dwarves of Moria were Spanish. OYE CALIENTE!

But they couldn't take the heat.


Even with the small water fountain/well


Ice Cube has turned to Pimp My Crib


But he wasn't aware of literalists bringing him cribs to be inlaid with bits of ivory, mother of pearl veneers, and a hint of gold leaf. 


Man I can't handle you walking all over the carpet. Put that ish in some GLASS!

KEEPS IT ALL PRETTY AND ISH


Shh... I may have stumbled upon Indiana Jones' latest adventure




He seems to be having a lot of trouble with taking clear photos as the entire world before him shakes.


And that shaking lead us to the exotic eastern kingdoms of China, Japan, and Korea




Where we sipped on some fine sake


And played hide and go seek in some dressers with the stereotypical nazi villain 


But it is time to retire for you and I.

Beijing Day 5 - The Olympic Stadium aka Bird's Nest and the Water Cube


Creepy as it was walking in a perfect setup for a zombie apocalypse movie, the Bird's Nest and the Water Cube were really stunning.



The attention to detail is great. The lights were mini bird's nests. 


 And here's a series of Kim being a fool trying to Isshinryu kick # 7 in front of the Bird's Nest.



Lookin' like a fool but who cares? I'm a laowai!


Girls will be girls, as shown by Julia, Lindsay, and I modeling our Longchamp's.



We weren't sure if they were railings or potential seats so Yazzy Baby and Sarah attempted it.


Funny or non-sensical English shirts are always entertaining. I'm sure the same could be said of Chinese shirts that non-Chinese people seem to really enjoy wearing without knowing the message. I have no problem with it unless it says something rather inappropriate or if the person doesn't know that. 









This seems to be uploading some of the photos out of order. Well we tried to run in front of these or at least pose like we were running a couple of times. We felt silly but hey why not take small liberties in a foreign country. Never know when you next get to make a fool of yourself.
