After an interesting visit to the National Museum of Natural History we had lunch at Shakey’s (a pizza place). I find it strange how the museum doesn’t capitalise on the hundreds of visitors by running a cafe or even a souvenir shop. Our visit was marred by them not allowing any sketching inside (no idea why) and by our car keys mysteriously falling out of my bag which I was obliged to leave in the cloakroom. I checked carefully when I collected my bag and having found them missing, I asked the cloakroom attendant who knew instantly where they had “fallen”! This is the view from Shakey’s.
