Easter Holidays - Turin

First stop on the Easter Road Trip was Turin. The road was long, long, long. With queues, queues and a troubling eye! However, the spirit was high, and the views gorgeous, and a real Italian dinner after the late arrival made everything good again!

In Turin you can find the worlds 2nd largest Egyptian museum, so after a (few!) tasty little Italian coffees we headed to meet with the mummies! This museum is the only place where they have unwrapped mummies.
Egyptian eye liners!
It was an amazing experience being so close to pieces so old. You really felt the history close up, and could almost imagine their life.
