Sun 19 Oct: a lazy day

Exhausted
I woke up many times this morning, but could never bring myself to stay up. It was only about 11am that I finally decided that I had enough rest. This may be related to the many times at work where I'd have difficulties staying awake when seated for too long, usually in the afternoon.

Hopefully this long sleep will keep me awake during the weekdays.


Burke Museum

Decided to be a tourist and visit a museum. It's not very big. There are only 3 sections. As I was there on my own I had the luxury of time to enjoy the exhibits.

It's not easy to be a museum. It's a delicate balance of exhibit space, collection range, and operating costs. The intents are definitely noble. It is however equally important to be sustainable.

The place has a small dinosaur section which may please the teenagers. The cultural section tries to include a few major ones, but with a limited space it ended up being rather superficial.

It had a good start which was to focus on the native Indians though.
