the lure of the airplane

so Simon has been very into the Natural History Museum lately. On Saturday, we ended up having to walk to Natural History from the other end of the Mall. I suggested we walk through Air & Space for a change of venue. Simon demurred, saying he had no interest whatsoever and wanted to push through to Natural History. I insisted. He said fine, we'd just walk quickly through, and only because it was cold.

We enter the doors of Air & Space. Simon looks up. "Hm." he says. "Maybe we should just see what they have."

2 hours later, we walk through the front doors onto the Mall, on the way (still) to Natural History.

"Wow," says Simon. "we really got sucked in, didn't we!"
