Hi Girls!
Hope everyone is having a Magnificent Monday and enjoying President’s Day if you have it off!!!!
I have a fun mission for everyone today! Kat is on a heist and I need you all to use your spy skills to find out at what museum the heist is taking place and what painting is involved.
Here is a picture of the painting:
Good Luck on your mission to figure out this heist!

Shellie
P.S. I will give you one hint….Kat is using her Spanish speaking skills while on this heist!
First, I did not have Monday off and second, I have no clue, and third I do not see kat in that painting or her crew.

Well I was going to spend some time combing Google but it seems everyone else got here before me! Oh, well, good job ladies!! By the way, I just reviewed Double Crossed and it would mean a lot to me if my fellow Gallagher Girls visited me, commented and followed my blog! http://boardingwithbooks.blogspot.co.il/ Thanks:)
Love! The painting resides in Museo del Prado in Madrid. My best friend brought me a print of this back from Spain a few years ago.
We just learned about this painting in Spanish class! Apparently you’re supposed to look at it reflected through a mirror because the painter is actually left handed.
So, I was watching the news and I saw this story (My family and I read the Heist Society books together!) my mother, without missing a beat goes “It was Kat and Hale! Of course.” Definitely had to share because well… this is low-key a really REALLY cool heist and Kat and Hale totally could have pulled it off!
What did YOU do in 3 mins today?

The Las Meninas hangs in Museo del Prado, Madrid, Spain.
Okay, about this painting its Diego Rodríguez de Silva y Velázquez, 1656, Las Meninas painting. It’s located in the Museo Nacional del Prado museum in Madrid, Spain. I hope that Kat (Katarina) has Hale and her crew on her side. 😀
