And I love behind-the-rope areas that are not usually seen in house museums; they really add to the experience and help show how the house was used.

I LOVE seeing all the details. It makes everything so much richer and deeper. I mean, don't you hate 'decorated' places that are cold and impersonal? They look like something out of the Twilight Zone... who lives there??? <br /><br />I'm with Windlost, LOVE the shoes but also love following your eyes around the place... an education in itself.
