Squeezing the last few things in: MALBA

It always happens. You make a list of the things you want to see and do when you are traveling and somehow a month goes by and you still have not done them. 
This was the case for the MALBA; Museo de Arte Latinoamericano de Buenos Aires. Just a 20 minute walk from our apartment we passed by several times but didn't get inside until our second to last day in BA. 
Similar to the MCA in Chicago and MOMA in NYC, the contemporary museum the has a lively feel that excited the girls and even got Ben interested.  We have posted a few of our favorite pieces below, the most impressive being a famous Frida Kahlo (left) and several Diego Riveras. 
There were also a few exhibits that left us scratching our heads, including, but not pictured, the potato clock??  Check out the Eco-friendly King Kong, the wooden bench that turns into noodles, the exploding fire extinguisher.
We will also give a shout out to all of the kids art and science teachers over the years. There was not a piece of art or sculpture that our kids could not identify the materials used and the simple concepts behind them.
