It has been a number of years since we've visited. Somehow, all I could remember from the experience were the Elgin Marbles and the Rosetta Stone. I guess it wouldn't be difficult to remember the Rosetta Stone for us since we bought a large replica of it at the Museum Store to bring home with us! It is now hanging up in one of our bathrooms. It is there so that anytime I use the bathroom, I can spend some time trying to decipher it ;-)<br /><br />I know it is now Saturday night in Brussels. What did you guys do today and how is the weather? In Calgary, it is just Saturday morning and we awoke to the thermometer reading -20C. With that temperature it is just not motivating to do anything!Ken Cheunghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16424861336817168038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1472948594282768200.post-17624449897670068352011-11-19T07:09:30.776+01:002011-11-19T07:09:30.776+01:00Another great post!! I have been to the British Mu...Another great post!! I have been to the British Museum at least 3 times and still have not seen everything. When Uncle Crabby and I went many years ago, you could do rubbings of the rosetta stone. We also ended up downstairs in the basement of the museum wandering the store rooms with all the "sticky fingered" artifacts not currently on display. Perhaps we should have pocketed a few Greek busts...... On that trip we seemed to have had a penchant for ending up in places where we probably should not have been. I doubt we could do that now. Uncle Crabby does not have nearly enough table dance money for bail - ha ha!! I seem to remember also that on that first trip to the museum, Uncle Crabby felt that the coffee and sandwhich we had at the cafeteria was the most expensive EVER and he made me eat canned pork and beans for 3 days afterwards. Uncle Crabby has no idea what he is in for when I get him to buy me lunch at the Met this spring. When he does, I might be able to cut a deal for either the lunch or the millenium falcon. hahahahJedi Queenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09080578080962654848noreply@blogger.com
