#4 True story time:
My sister and I went Xmas shopping this weekend at the museum gift shops along the National Mall. As we walked up to the Air & Space museum, we talked about it being the most-visited museum in the world, and how it's ALWAYS the first stop any time we have friends in from out of town. She told me she was talking to a Polish journalist at a conference she was attending, who was looking forward to his visit to the NASM. My sister said, with a grave look on her face, that she was quite sure that he would much prefer to go to the National Gallery of Art, because "Europeans really prefer Art." I asked her "What on earth makes you think that?" and she just stared at me... |
