While we're on the subject of museums - our International Club went down to New York City last March to see "Les Miserables" (pardon the lack of accent), and we had a couple days of free time (we went for the weekend). My friend Maria and I went to the Met (-roplolitan Museum of Art, for those who don't know) and spent about six hours wandering around and looking at the artwork. We saw maybe - *maybe* - one twentieth of the museum. And that's pushing it. It was an amazing place... the last time I went to the Met I was in my freshman year of high school, and basically went to get out of the day of school, so I didn't really care about it and had no appreciation for the art. That, I think, is a terrible trajedy; I wish I has paid more attention to it. I enjoyed the museum so much on my second trip...

I don't really know where I'm going with this. :-} Anybody else have any particular museum stories?
