Tourist-y Fun May 16, 2008
Today I soaked up a lot of tourist-y action. Starting at the Tate Modern, which is amazing. It’s huge, and I was able to use a lot of the things I learned in art history. My favorite was “Unique Forms of Continuity in Space” by Boccioni. It’s even more neat looking in person than it is in a textbook. Unfortunately, I was caught trying to take pictures, so I wasn’t able to get a photo of it. So you’ll just have to make do with a picture of some weird egg-looking thing.
Then I made the short walk over to Shakespeare’s Globe, but it was closed for a special event (rich people having dinner). So I just took some pictures from the outside.
Then I trecked over the London Bridge, and walked the short distance to the Tower of London, to which you can see Peaches dutifully posing in front. There were thousands of people there, and I didn’t pay to go inside since it looked crowded. I’ll part with cash when someone visits me.
Color me jealous. Unique Forms of Continuity in Space is far and away my favorite sculpture.
that visiting person is me?!
