Cairo Museum

 I walked to the Museum this morning. good 40 minutes across the river. The Museum is packed with artifacts. Lots of crates of more stuff stacked along walls and such, too. So many things to see here and not a whole lot labeled.

But, got the see Tutankamen's gold headdress and other things in the special room. Someone told me it was extra to go in there, but no problem today. It appeared open and no one was checking who was coming and going. hmmmm. Glad I got to see the museum after all. sat out in the courtyard for lunch and did a nice sketch of the museum entrance (behind me). will make a nice oil painting the day I get around to it.
