Most trips are taken with a particular purpose and destination in mind, but sometimes, an opportunity arises to go off itinerary and you discover a gem (though places that prove to be less interesting can also provide good stories). On a recent trip to New Haven, we came across a brochure entitled \u201cChristmas in Poland.\u201d A temporary exhibit at the Knight of Columbus Museum, it seemed interesting enough, plus it was free!<\/p>\n

Arriving at the museum, we discovered a construction vehicle out front. After circling a couple times in search of a parking spot, we ended up in an hourly public lot with a self-serve kiosk. We thought an hour would be sufficient, most free museums are small and don’t take long to walk through. Then we got inside and heard about all the exhibits. It was then that we also learned there is free parking under the building (note: read the brochure carefully), which of course we would have seen if it weren\u2019t blocked.<\/p>\n
