As we had been shopping all morning and were now feeling very tired, it would be a pleasure to sit down. We took a bus and arrived jus as large drops of rain were beginning to fall.

The museum was quite deserted and very peaceful. We sat down in the main hall and listened to the rain beating against the windows. Suddenly there was great disturbance at the entrance. Then a large party of school-boys were led in by teacher. The poor man was trying to keep them quite and threatening to punish them, but they did not pay the slightest attention. the boys ran here and there like a wild tribe. Apologizing for this lack of discipline the teacher explained that the boys were rather excited. But in the end the noise proved too much for us and we decided to leave.
