The British Museum in London is one of my favorite places in the world. It's beautifully laid out with too many exhibits to visit in a day. If I lived in London I'm sure I'd visit the museum once a month. Of course my favorite part as a little girl was listening to the audio tour of the Egyptian artifacts. This was where I first learned of Sekhmet, the blood thirsty daughter of Ra. Interestingly, although she was a warrior goddess who killed scores of humans in a bloody rampage, she was also known as the goddess of love and healing. The British Museum may have begun my fascination with Ancient Egyptian mythology.
