The Guggenheim

So we finally got to see the Guggenheim in Bilbao!!! First of all, no photos can do the architecture any justice. It is situated right on the water and is incorporated into it's surroundings so seamlessly that you almost miss it.... well not really, but you get the point. Every corner (although there are no "real" corners) has it's own character. Even the view from the back that is lined with garbage pails is stunning. Gehry left no detail overlooked.
Enough about the outside. The collection is AWESOME!!! Rob was having a grumpy morning and wasn't feelin so great but i quietly convinced him to come along to see the museum and within minutes of it's approach he had a huge smile and was feeling in tip top shape. We spent about 4 hours inside and I put as much to memory as possible. It allows me to take a nice tour again in my head before I go to sleep at night. There were some pretty impressive Koons paintings inside and the Richard Serra exhibit left both of us speechless. One of my best memories thus far.
