Art Museum

Why do five cent pieces here look like dimes and 10 cent pieces look like nickels?   That darned self pay machine was making me mad, crediting only five cents for each dime.

Failed to mention our visit to the Scottish National Gallery.  It compared favorably to art museums in Italy in many ways.  Free vs. 20 Euro to start.  Galleries that are well laid out for easy flow.  Relatively uncrowded.  Not sweltering heat.  The collects aren't as vast, but they're not shabby.  Not so big it wears one down.  To drop a few names of artists I can recall a day  later (spellings not authenticated):

Bottacelli, Degas, El Greco, Gauguin, Hals, Leonardo, Monet, Picasso, Rembrandt, Renoir, Rodin,  Seurat, Tiepolo, Titian, Van Gogh and the professor and Mary Ann.
