Gem Room from the LA Natural History Museum

After a doctor's appointment on campus yesterday, I decided to reward myself by going to the Natural History Museum. So around 10 am (after stopping at the law school for a spinach and cheese croissant sandwich . . . mmm so yummy), I found myself at the door to the museum. Guess who else was at the door? About 1000 children. No joke. I picked a school visit day. The museum was a mad house, but as a testament to how good the museum is, I still loved it despite the deafening levels of screaming surrounding me. (How do teachers do it? I admire them so much.) My favorite was the gem room. There is so much to look at. I cannot wait to come back on a more peaceful day. I could look at the gems for hours and hours.
