Ok here’s the promised photo spam of my museum pictures while justanothermonica was here visiting.
We went to Escher at The Palace (former palace of Queen Emma), Mauritshuis, Rembrandthuis, and Rijksmuseum. It was all fabulous but needless to say I’m a bit museumed out. LOL
(Hope plurk cooperates and lets me load them.) Enjoy!

The first cubicles. LOL this was Rembrandthuis
Escher at the Palace
I was intrigued by the chandeliers in the palace too
Mauritshuis
There was really gorgeous architecture in there too plus the woodwork and ceilings amazed me.
Great pics
Ok that’s it for now. I might add more later. It was a FABULOUS time! I truly enjoyed every second of her visit. Just had to share with you guys. Please feel free to friend JustAnotherMonica because she’s new to plurk. 
Maybe she’ll share some of her pictures here too.

incredible! Thank you so much for taking the time to share all these wonderful pictures. This is the culture I miss, living where I do.
Thank you for the pictures.
Those were awesome! Loved all the Escher stuff...and those chandeliers were so cool.
I love the Esher drawings. Impresive stuff. Especially when you remember that was without computers. all handcrafted
I loved the Escher stuff best. He was amazing! I’d go back again easily. Those chandeliers were amazing too. Partly because they were so huuuge! The pictures don’t really capture them well.
isle: I wish I could go more often but it’s just too spendy for us. This was really a special treat!
WOW all of these are amazing!!!
I recently had to call in a refill on meds for Puck and on the phone the woman kept saying EXCUSE ME!?!? when I said Puck, and it wasn't until we got off the phone that I realized she thought I was saying fuck and this delights me.
WhiskeyMonday: it was an awesome visit. I must say that I found the Rijksmuseum my least favorite. It was a bit disappointing.
That’s hysterical about the phone call. LOL
I love the Rijksmuseum. It's amazing <3
Wow, pretty cool!
OMG those are playmobils!!!
WhiskeyMonday: yes they are!
