It\u2019s also the locale of the Met\u2019s Cloisters Museum, but alas it was closed on Wednesday.\u00a0 Here are some shots from the garden, and then the view of the Palisades, the rock cliffs by the river, not to be confused with the more massive ones at the Kentucky River near me.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a
