Friday, April 15. Today we visited the Picasso and Mammoth Museums. Picasso was born in Malaga (Haughton picked out a small painting of Malaga when we were in Sevilla and is hoping to go there on our next visit). When he was 14, his family moved to Barcelona. He lived there for much of the next 10 years. The museum opened in 1963 and occupies 3 palaces. We got an audio tour, which was fun. The kids took turns finding the next number for the recordings. After about 20 recordings, Ridgely was done. I carried her through the rest of the collection so that Haughton could continue listening to the tour. In the bookstore we bought a memory game with 20 different Picasso pictures. It was so fun when we could identify the paintings from the tour. Unfortunately, no photos were allowed in the museum, so i don't have any pictures to share.
On our way back, we stopped to eat and then found the small Mammoth Museum. What a treat!
