Holy crap, four museums in one day?! Generally doing a single museum exhausts me for the day, especially something like the Met which could be several days by itself if you actually tried to look at everything.
Sounds like you made the most of your trip here. Hope I get to see you next weekend when I make my trip to CA.

Yeah, I didn’t finish the Moma, but I’m pretty fast on the museums. No stopping and staring forever for me!
