Friday and Saturday

Right.
Friday was dull enough not to need talking about. Lecture was on Mead, reminds me to wiki her
Saturday morning I got up too early. Spent some time on skype wishing my mum Happy Birthday. The connection was alot better than it is in the evenings, no idea why. In the afternoon I went to the museum. I went round two exhibits. One was the prehistory exhibt, and it was really interesting. I also spent time before entering the musem in the beautiful courtyard that's outside it. The prehistory exhibit had a class of schoolkids there, but I went round in my own time and it was good. Well spaced out, well explained and very modern. There was one small room at the side literally filled from floor to ceiling with various flints from all over the world and all over Italy. It was a bit much to take in.
Then I went to the Etruscan exhibit. That was interesting because I had been studying it last term. Everything was bigger than I imagined. They had a princesses tomb there, which was amazing, complete with throne, stools and pots with food in. There was row upon row of glass cases with cremations in. The grave goods were intersting but there was so many! They had mock ups of how the urns would have been buried, which was helpful. This room led onto a massive long room mostly filled with cases and I started to get bored. Museums need to modernise and this felt like it came from the 1930s.
I got hungry so I went home. Rest of the day was filled idly with nothing much. In the evening I went out with Lucie and Charlotte. It was pretty fun most of the time. I left early as they wanted to stay until half past 3!! We went inside this weird cage they have there. I went home at about 2.30.
update again soon xx
