I have planned the trip to the Dallas Museum of Art to see the King Tut exhibit well in advance. We had very high expectations considering the advertisement of the Exhibit and the pricing. However, I must say I was slightly disappointed. The exhibit had far less artifacts than I expected. Those that were on display were amazing. The narrative about King Tut life as well as his predecessors was very informative but left many unanswered questions towards the end. I was delighted to learn that the tickets we purchased allowed us the entrance to other Dallas Museum of Arts exhibits. My parents (who live in Ukraine and spent the Holidays with us in the US) particularly enjoyed the Wendy and Emery Reves Collection that re-creates five rooms from Villa La Pausa, the home of Wendy and Emery Reves in the south of France that was originally built by Coco Chanel. I would highly recommend planning a tour of the entire collections the Museum offers and taking advantage of “2 for 1” price. If you are planning a family trip, the Museum offers a Family Holiday Package for $56 plus miscellaneous fees – a great deal. I absolutely loved the YouTube Video you’ve posted a link to…
