Educator's night at the De Young! Admission was free for teachers. King Tut has made his way back into town after 30 years. We remarked how it all seemed a little Indiana Jones-like at the entry (one of my favorite rides at Disneyland). I loved how the doors flew open automatically after the short 90 second video introduction. I let out a loud "Whoa!" and the museum staff person inside chuckled. "I'm easily impressed," I explained. He laughed again.

My excitement was equally sustained by the contents of the exhibit. Fascinating. One man buried with all this stuff - apparently he didn't subscribe to the "you can't take it all with you." It gets left to museum goers like me to ooh and ahh over.
