Today after work, I realized that the
Museum of Fine Arts in Boston has admission by voluntary contribution on Wednesday nights, so I decided to go check it out. For dinner, I decided to use one of my Livingsocial deals at
Andrea's House of Pizza in Watertown. To spend my $30, I got a large Meat Lovers' Pizza, the Ziti Chicken Broccoli Alfredo, and the Baklava and Kataifa desserts, the last 2 being something you would not normally find in an ordinary pizza joint.

After having my feel of pizza and keeping the rest till later, I headed into Boston. I was really lucky that I actually managed to find free roadside parking right next to the museum, and started my visit here taking a few pictures of the sculptures here before heading in.
Once inside, I still had to get a ticket, so I decided to donate $2 given my luck at parking tonight. I had a few hours before closing, but I did not know how long it would take me to explore the entire museum, so I walked briskly through all the exhibits, taking pictures whenever I saw something interesting. I enjoyed walking down the hallways and entering the spacious exhibition rooms. Pictures of the various exhibits follow.

The museum was so large, I was amazed that I even managed to find my way out of the place, much less explore the whole museum. My mission accomplished, I headed back to my car, walking around the other side of the museum and enjoying the beautiful weather. Another day of exploring well spent.
