I'd like to see some of the museum suggestions she makes :D

I love how Isolde said "No, not usually.", implying that sometimes, they do let people drink it and take on "mutant American superpowers". Hah!

I fundamentally disagree with Isolde's assertation that any musium has an Americana factor.

Last I was in the Manchester Musium of Science and Industry, for example, it didn't. It was all about science (and, um, industry), and any relation to America was simply a coincidence.

Funny strip though.

I'm not sure if I want museums to read Millie's input :?

Too bad for Millie that the International Spy Museum costs money to visit.

Is it me, or has there been a general shortening of snouts in this strip? All three of them seem distinctly short-nosed. Not that it's a bad thing. Millie looks qwoot in the third panel :)

Ah, I went to the Smithstonian last summer. It's freaking big, in fact I suspect it's the name of a barrage of museums in DC.

My parents had planned to look at one such museum and then go to another (non-Smithstonian) museum, but it turned out to be bigger than we expected and we had to scratch the second one.

Still had lots of fun... I got to see the original Betsy Ross American flag... a ton of other stuff I can't recall at the moment, and a T-shirt.

AAAAAAH! MORE SCARY SMILIES!

I went there last year...
Unfortunatly I had a lousy time. Sit down it's kinda a long story:

Well, it was the band trip and we went to DC. It was a wast of money. We pushed at least a week of touring into 3 days and didn't see much of anything I wanted to see.
Since I was little I've always loved Paleontology. I wanted more than anything on this trip to see the Museam of Natural History.
Sadly, the band parent who was assigned to our group went off with the 5 People who wanted to go to the zoo. We ended up sitting outside the place I'd been looking the entire trip to go, for 3 hours. Eventually someone came, and by then there was about half an hour before we moved onto the Smithsonian. It was left to a vote amongst the group as to go in or move on ahead. Obviously I was outvoted. *sniff* All I wanted was to see some dino stuff.
