Travel Journal 07: Washington, DC - American Art Museum



But it was not a let-down. I felt that given the 1 ½ hours I have to roam around, there was a lot to see and appreciate. But digesting what you see required you to sit back and relax in their comfortable chaises from time to time. It’s like having too much dark chocolate. You can only have it one at a time and not all the time. I also liked the fact that the tired (and confused) viewers were treated to a wonderful indoor courtyard filed with ficus trees, low lighting and “pools” of water, which are only a quarter inch deep. It gave you a chance to rest and reflect on what you experienced.
