Cummer Museum

I went back to Cummer Museum (with my mother but it was her first time of course) and good plan, as a student (officially, I’m not anymore, but my card is valid until 2017!) my entry was free.
Every Tuesday evening (16h-21h), the entry is also free for all.

As we arrived in the morning at the museum and we wanted to embark on a late afternoon shopping in San Marco, we had lunch at the museum café (open all day but closes one hour before the museum itself) and truthfully, I still drool over thinking about this salad. I think it was all in the seasoning but we absolutely enjoyed it – this is also why my plate is already well underway on the photo, I forgot and I rarely am so thrown on a plate!

And this time I saw the gardens! They were closed when I came at night in December. It’s beautiful! At the edge of the river… I want a garden like that one day (well except that I will live in a rotten shack in the forest in the mountains with my husband but it’s not the subject).



No comment 😅

Merrill Museum House

When leaving the Veterans memorial wall on the way to the supermarket, we came across this house by chance.

It’s actually a museum. It belonged to James E. Merrill who did a lot for Jacksonville’s economy when he started an iron works there in 1875.
You have to book a tour and you only make a donation in the end. The ladies who take care of the tour saw us outside and had no one that day so we had a private visit. This museum has just reopened and is still pretty unknown. Unfortunately I didn’t take one picture of the inside but it is worth seeing (and listening to the ladies’ story about the Merrill family)!

MOSH (Museum of Science & History)

Last Friday I went to visit the MOSH (Museum of Science & History).
A museum that is quite random since it contains a section on the human body (fairly disgusting by the way), a section on marine mammals, a section on energies, some animals (birds and reptiles), a garden, a history section (Jacksonville and North Florida – the section I enjoyed the most), and a planetarium + temporary exhibits (it was on wrecks and pirates when I went there).
The entrance is normally $ 10 and the Planetarium screenings at $ 5 (you have to buy your ticket at the entrance too) but on Friday everything is half the price!

I almost got it right haha.
