How I love this museum. As many times as I go, I never tire of it. Recently on a bad weather day I was wondering what to do with myself, and I ended up spending the entire day here. One thing that is so great is that you can go on so many gallery talks (I went on 3 in one day). I'm perfectly happy to sit in the courtyard and just relax, read my book or just meditate on the art around me. At any given time there can be numerous special exhibits going on, which are always so expertly curated and so rich with information. Just the museum shops are an experience. Of course the Egyptian collection is always so much fun.
