Sunday, January 8, 2006, we had a late start heading back home from our little mini-vacation. But before starting our road trip back, we decided to stop at Metropolis, Illinois since it was just a few minutes away from where we were staying. Although we were in a bit of hurry to get home as the kids had to get back to school and we had to get back to work the next day. When we arrived, the kids quickly jumped out of the car and I began to take a few pictures.
I was a little disappointed because I wanted to get some souvenirs and go see the museum but the whole place looked deserted. It was actually kind of eerie. After all it was late Sunday afternoon and no one seemed to be around. It was as if we were the only ones there. Soon after I finished taking pictures of the kids with Superman, we got in the car and left.
When I finally got the pictures developed, and as I was looking at them, I realized that the museum and the gift shop were open 7 days from 9 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. We were there around 4:30 p.m.) That meant we could have gone to check it out! I was so busy taking pictures that I never focused on the BIG sign that clearly indicates the days and time. (How did I possibly miss that?!) And it never occurred to any of us to go inside. Duh!!!!
