Museums & Tattoos!

What a combination, right?! Who you tellin'?
Candace and I had a very "artsy" day planned. We were going to visit the "free" museums (namely the Fine Arts & Health/Medical museums).
We left around 11am, (after I did a lil' shopping at Old Navy) and headed downtown. We went to the Fine Arts Museum first, where immediately we were fronted by a sign that read "Yes, you may walk on the art!"..and soo...we vogued all over the floor art that was amazing!
Soon after, we found a lil room that allowed us to sit down and design flags of our own. We had a great lil crafty time. Candace dogged me out for not being creative enough...but watev!
Then we ate at the Cafe Express there, and quickly found our way into a gallery that included some sketched art. They allowed us to grab a clipboard, pencil, colored pencils and portable seats while we were escorted to take a shot at mimicing the art of our choice.
Then we checked out the rest of the art and headed to the Health & Medical museum. Here, we browsed the different booths that highlighted facts about our bodies, brain teasers, and began our trek back to the parking garage.
Headed home, we passed a tattoo parlor that advertised free ladies tatt's and piercings. Reeled in by the 'trapping billboard' we U-turned and found ourselves $20-35 later sitting in chairs behind fiber glassed windows getting body art. Candace got her trec (middle ear lobe) pierced, and me: left cartilage (for the 3rd time) and a isthmus (christian fish symbol used by disciples in martydom days) tattooed on my left foot. Candace caught a whif of some gay couple's stank breath and we were on our way!
Lol...what an adventurous Spring break we have had!
