Another long, yummy breakfast to get the day started
right.
The great thing about staying near the train station is that
I was able to grab a ticket to Nuremburg while I passed through the station to
start my day.
Jumped off the Hop On/Off at Rautenstrauch-Joest-Museum on
Nuermarkt because they had an exhibit called ‘14 days in Benin’ by photographer
Albert Watson. It was a wonderful
exhibit and glad I added it to my day.
It got me stocked for the Western Africa portion of this trip to be
sure.
Turns out this is a pretty cool museum in general. I spent quite a bit of time in the
regular exhibit on World Culture.
It covered everything from culture, language and customs. They also had an area on Burkina Faso
dealing with the masks, costumes and dance rituals. Like the Benin exhibit this bit got me pumped for Burkina
too.

| Lunch at Ludwig Museum |
Back on the bus and to the center of town to check out
Museum Ludwig. This museum covers Pop
art, Modern and Minimalist arts. I
enjoyed all but the minimalist art.
Minimalist art sucks at least for me. I have never liked it and just don’t get it…. I too can
paint a canvas black.
I grabbed a delicious quiche, salad and local wine while
people watching at the Museum Ludwig Café.
Just those few things on the itinerary lead to another
wonderful, long day.
