We traveled to Philadelphia
on a day trip and went to the
The Franklin Institute to see
The Art of the Brick
designed by Nathan Sawaya .
This is all statues made completely from
LEGOS.
 |
| This is one of the most substantial pieces of his work It has approximately 75,450 bricks and is titled Moai. |
 |
| Adding up to around 4,573 bricks, the Mona Lisa ''Lego painting'' truly appears to be the real masterpiece |
 |
| The Great wave off Kanagawa is practically rolling with motion as would a real wave. It holds 2,877 blocks |
 |
| This monstrous cat, the Great Sphinx of Giza is constructed of 2,604 Legos. |
 |
| Swimming in a sea of blue Legos, The Swimmer is a real eye catcher made up of 10,980 bricks. |
 |
| This gigantic pencil writing ''Fun'' was dedicated to school being just that. It takes up 9,800 bricks and is just adorable:) |
 |
| Labeled ''Disintegration,'' this 3D Lego man is being deconstructed by the winds of life and slowly disintegrating into nothing. It is built of 10,124 pieces. |
 |
| This is probably the most well known sculpture of Sawaya's artwork. This man is tearing out his yellow heart and soul, earning the name Yellow. He has 11,014 bricks. |
 |
we went to Marrakesh for Moroccan food.
 |
| Doesn't this look delectable? Although this looks like a kind of cake it really is honey, almonds, and egg chunks encrusted in flaky phyllo dough and dusted with powered sugar. It is one of the many dishes served here. |
 |
| Here we are, enjoying ourselves (sorry,K wasn't ready for the camera). |
 |
| This is one of the rooms. They all look similar to this one. This picture looks much brighter than it really is as it is very dark in the restaurant, lending to the atmosphere. |
