Took the Metro to the Phoenix Art Museum. Met friends for lunch, finished with a warmed chocolate & pecan desert. States to view the French film "Les visiteurs du soir".
The whole idea of taking the Metro Light Rail to downtown Phoenix is new (since December). I talked all three friends into riding. Karl started out on the western end of the line, at 19th Avenue and Bethany home. I met Joan and Doug at the 38th Street and Washington Park and Ride. We purchased our tickets (credit, debt, and to my surprise CASH!) and boarded the train. We had a nice ride through downtown Phoenix and were very excited to talk about all of the places "on the line" that were good candidates for dinner.
The stop closest to the Art Museum was at McDowell and Central so we quickly crossed the two streets and made our way to the entrance on the north side of the building. It was an easy walk. We met at the Arcadia Cafe, a few minutes before they started serving lunch at 11AM. Joan and Doug had the crabcakes, I had the tart, and Karl had the Albacore sandwich. The yummy chocolate and pecan treat was brought to the table nicely arranged in four pieces, and we enjoyed with the locally roasted coffee.
After the movie, we headed to the train stop for an enjoyable and easy ride home.
