The Tate Modern

I toured London the 2 days prior to Chris's arrival. I decided to visit the Tate Modern the day before he arrived. This museum houses a vast collection of Modern (twentieth century) art. I typically don't "dig" modern art, and I know Chris does. I feared that if I went with him, we would spend the majority of the afternoon looking at "crap."

Well, I really enjoyed the art and spent the majority of an afternoon there anyways. Also, it turned out that the interior architechture was pretty cool too....Bottom line, I enjoyed the Tate Modern and Chris missed out!

This is one of the pieces I enjoyed the most. Night Vision by Fiona Rae, is an Oil and Acrylic on Canvas. The colors of the painting, when viewed up close, is what I really enjoyed the most, so this picture doesn't do it justice!

Finally, here is a picture of some cool slides, inside the building, that I regret not going down.
