Samhain Waning Harvest Moon
So. Two very fun tours. The kids were great. Excited, eager to see the next object, came prepared from their work with Mr. Bowman. It was a treat to take them through the museum. The interior design students and their teacher were, equally, excited and eager though in a more adult, subdued way. We talked about wabi-sabi as an aesthetic, the tea ceremony, Taoism and Confucianism, ancestor veneration, bridle joints, huang hua li wood, Ming dynasty folding chairs and we even tacked on a sort of overview of the African galleries. Both groups seemed happy and cheerful and I felt appreciated. A good morning.
Now. Tired. Nap.
