Now I have. ^__^ I wandered all over the Egyptian and Asian side and took a side trip into the Weapons and Armor section. I nearly squeed aloud when passing through the Egyptian section, from two rooms away I spied Hatsheput!!!!! Then I get closer and find they have a whole room just for her!!!!! *dies* She is my absolute favorite pharaoh.
Then of course I HAD to go through the gift shop... and there... on the sale table, was a book on Hirado ceramics. THAT is the island I lived on when I was in Japan. Needless to say that book had to come with me, as did one on Chinese garments, also on sale. ^___^
