Musée Dobrée Dimanche le 22 Oct. 06

Some pictures from the Musée Dobrée on Sunday Oct. 22 (it's free on Sundays!).
It is the private collection of Thomas Dobrée who happens to have the same birthday as me, which I got a kick out of. Benjamin Franklin also visited Nantes, as I learned reading one of the signs.

I thought my horsey friends might get a kick (or scare) out of seeing the Medieval bits and spurs. Look at how long the shanks are! Jeffrey, the dominoes are for you!! They are from 15th century China. Sorry some of them are kind of dark; we couldn't use a flash (but hey, now I've learned how to turn the auto flash feature off).


The pics at the bottom are the outside of the museum. I couldn't really capture what a neat building this is.
