Museo Egizio

Today we went to the Eyptian Museum and it was AMAZING! I was fortunate enough to speak with the director of the museum and discuss the challenges faces her museum. Surprisingly she is facing some of the same difficulties as me-although the Marshall Museum does not have the problem of having several thousand visitors a day and only 5 bathrooms.....eek! The building is under construction (and yes they will be adding more bathrooms) so here are a few pictures from the inside.


Tara looks so studious.....

MUMMY!
