      Yes! Its a amazing view. Rocky movie was shot on the steps of the museum and Sylvester Stallone looks at the city but the director picked a morning shot so the view is not this clear. But right out side near the steps is the statue of the character that Sylvester Stallone, played in Rocky. I love it when I see people stand in front of it with their hands held high posing for the pics. Then there is this beautiful structure at the bottom of the steps with a whole history of the city on it through the time, which is cool too.

    The Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto is fabulous! I saw the Mona Lisa at the Louvre and had what was then a very embarrassing encounter with a guard! I was in my 20's, didn't know any better and I snapped a photo of the painting with the flash on. The guard grabbed my camera and everyone stared, it was awful. He finally gave me back the camera and I quickly walked away to blend in with the crowd. It's funny now but sure wasn't then!

      OH! What a memory. It must have been a shock to have someone grab your camera like that. I was approached by the guard at this Museum of art in Philadelphia as I was way too close to a museum piece with my camera. In most places they have sensors, if you use a flash or if you come way to close to the museum piece, and bells start to ring. :)
