musings on museum





well, was down london way over easter break and as i love museums.... (was in the natural history AND science AND Victoria & Albert!!!)
of interest for me:a rock (crystal really) that 'glows' under UV light; some fine symmetry from mughal times out of india; RJ Mitchell (designer of the Spitfire) - of interest is the sculpture, it's made from water-worn slate pebbles; a very funny pic of mamma polar bear not waiting for her offspring as she's hungry and food? it's 40 miles away to broken pack ice.
and i found some who are struck by museums even more than me, kids.
