Happy Easter

A beautiful Kapok tree outside the Museum of Fine Arts
One of the Kapok flowers.

Some of the branches, all flowers no leaves.



Carriage rides on the waterfront



I wasn't a fan of Fernando Botero's art, after seeing his exhibit, nothing has changed. Happy Easter!
We went to the History and Fine arts museums today the first is a block away from the marina the second two blocks so it was a short walk. Both were very nice and interesting. There was an extensive Fernando Botero display at the Art museum and they had lots of other works as well including a Gaugain and quite a few Monet paintings. There also were quite a bit of pre- Colombian artefacts from Mexico, Central, and South America which were very interesting.
Outside the museum there was a huge and beautiful Kapok tree, quite different from the ones I had see before which had one tall trunk, this one had several trunks spread out it was full of flowers and being photographed by many people, us included.
We had dinner at Columbia Resaturant at the Pier, it was very good.
