Glad you were able to try on a helmut. Our own museum director even admitted that wearing just our humble custom made armor gave him an unusual empowering feeling.

Definitely excitement in the air! I was so excited I persuaded a museum staff member to let me try on a Samurai helmet in the museum shop! I learned a few things from this experience: 1) The staff at the museum are really interesting and creative people. The woman that helped me with the helmet dressed both Samurai in the gift shop without instructions! 2) My head now fits a Samurai helmet, it did not before I entered the Asian:) 3) My nose is just too big, but it was totally worth it to to finally get the face-plate on! 4) Dressing in just one small piece of history transformed me and left a lasting impression upon my visit to the Asian Art Museum in San Francisco.

I love the behind the scenes approach and the photography. Reminds me of when I used to get suited up for my lacrosse games. Gosh…this is really neat.
