Favorite Museum?

[TraceyM]

Do you have a favorite museum?

My daughter loves museums and will slowly go through reading about everything. My back does not agree with that slow approach although I have been to some great museums.

Having grown up in Canada, one of my favorites is the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM) in Toronto. It has amazing displays and killer corn beef sandwhiches in its restaurant, and my favorite part is the dinosaur rooms.

Locally I love one in Portland Oregon called the Peculiarium. It's totally oddball and quirky and just a small space and I seem to recall the snack you can buy was something like chocolate covered ants or something like that. I do know chocolate and bugs were involved. It also has a nice big bigfoot to pose with.

I have been to the Louvre. But I was never going to get through the whole thing even whilst living in Paris for a year.

What are your favorites? Why?
