Sleeping with sharks

So what with all the gloom and doom, we gotta smile sometime.  And sometimes I think that I was born too early.  When I was a boy there was no place that I liked better than the “American Museum of Natural History.”  OK, OK, we’ve already established my fundamental geekiness, which some people find endearing. Then came the movie “Night at the Museum,” which was followed by organized sleepovers in the museum.  Did I ever envy those kids!  So today I’d like to share a picture by Mikael Buck for Rex Features showing fifty-five cub scouts on a sleepover besides the big shark encounter tank in the London Aquarium on September 15, 2013.  Does it get any better?

One thought on “Sleeping with sharks

  1. How wonderful. Ah to have slept in the Brooklyn Museum with its outstanding Egyptian exhibit,; one of the finest in the world. I forced my father to take me there every Sunday. He couldn’t stand looking at the mummies anymore but I could have lived there amongst the antiquity and the smell of ancient civilizations long long gone.
