That museum is less overpriced when you realize that they station a docent at, like, each exhibit. Because kids never read the instructions to find out what they're supposed to be learning :)
Poor Ana was the victim of poor planning. She'd been under the weather over the weekend, and with the museum and all we ate breakfast relatively early but then didn't eat lunch until about 4, and no snacks, with the end result that she got a headache and fell into bed as soon as we got home.
In other news, Ana was talking about migraines and auras over breakfast the other day, and Eva revealed that she gets the auras too. But no headache, just "pain in my eye". Yeah, Eva, um, that'd be a headache, and headache + aura = probably a migraine. This isn't really a surprise, but I wasn't thrilled to hear it.
