Time travel

A little over seven years ago when the museum opened, the first visitors were two young sisters who then were welcomed by the museum director, Mr Rabaté.
The other day they came back for a return visit, and once again Mr Rabaté welcomed them - before I got the pleasure of delivering them a tour.

Not only had the museum changed a lot since last time they were here; but the girls had grown up too, of course.
I really enjoyed spending time with them as we walked through the galleries together before opening time. I was so impressed by both their demeanor, and their knowledge. They interacted so beautifully both with me and the artwork; were attentive, asked relevant questions and answered mine, and engaged in deep discussions around the art and history.

Their mother was also taken aback, and almost excused herself while exclaiming: "Can I just say how proud I am by my girls! I didn't know they learnt so much at school!". Bless! They were so beautiful!

Here is a small movie from their visit:
