Rotterdam Museumnacht

One day every year, Rotterdam has Museumnacht or (for those of you who don't speak Dutch like me) Museum Night. Basically for one price you get to go to all the museums in Rotterdam between the hours of 8pm and 1am. Most of the museums are pretty much in the same area or within walking distance of each other which makes it even easier to enjoy.

It's really popular and people really get into it which makes it fun. I got to check out some classic works, cool industrial design, natural history, architecture (pictured above), photography and some contemporary art. Add to that some bands and DJs at some of the venues and you've got yourself a rockin' Dutch event.

I must disclose that I'm definitely not an art connoisseur. So some of the contemporary art really confuses me (although a lot of it is interesting and pretty cool). But, some of it is just down right shocking and bizarre. I'd post some pictures but pretty much all of the exhibits did not allow taking of photographs. But more importantly, some of the exhibits would violate the Saturday morning cartoon decency and innocence you've come to expect from me.
