Gallery Going

Tip when visiting art galleries with small children: museum curators tend to place the lighting with the intention of creating maximum glare for anyone under 4' tall. I noticed this when we were standing in front of the "ice skater" painting at the Nat'l Gallery with Zola. She made some comment, and I knelt down next to her to hear, and looking up at the painting saw nothing but glare.

So I picked her up, and put her on my hip, and we looked together.

"Why does he have that expression?" says the 3-year-old.
