Museum of Tolerance

[MouseWife]

GD~ That is what I was thinking myself...

libraryvixen~ Oh, see, just reading your summary about the museum had me all choked up. I hope that I can handle it. When they sing 'The Star Spangled Banner' it makes me emotional.

Thank you so much for the summary, I think I will print it up to help me make sure what I don't want to miss and what to be prepared for.

Babette~ Seriously, I don't know if I can tolerate that ride...I may just suck it up and drive....and, I agree about those getting it and those not. If he doesn't, he can come back again and at least know what to expect. And, I think I need to read that book myself.

Kevy Baby, ooo, I live way further than that...I think it will be at least a three hour drive. Include with the the preparing to get on the bus and then the gathering up the kids after. I think the bus ride home will be quite somber. If it isn't I think I'm gonna pop open a can of 'Whup @$$' on them.

tracilicious~ That was my first {and still to a large degree} feeling. I asked why and if they were even studying it. I don't really compare reading the book to going to the museum, the book seems quite age appropriate. So, this is why I am going.

I know my son had a very difficult time with things when his grandmother passed away when he was 10.

Everyones responses have really helped me to feel comfortable with him going, as long as I go with him.

I will print up your summary and go to the website and see what else I should print up.

Any other ideas will be greatly appreciated, I think if we go we won't go again for some time.

And, I understand going to Disneyland after and seeing happy people. I know this is not really comparable but after I saw 'Titanic', I was really drained. All of that was so real and knowing it really happened just got to me. On the way home from the theater I looked out the window {I wasn't driving} at the people and life going on and thought about those who died. What they went through. See, this may be harder on me......

Do they stock Kleenex?
