It fortunately there was another car with automatic transmission. So I drive up, and park next to the museum.

As I am walking towards it, I see this sign pointing the other way, saying “Museu de la Tècnica,” with a cute gear icon.pic.twitter.com/GH5oFkFfv5

I don’t have internet because of another earlier snafu (bad SIM card), but I had the foresight to save offline Google Maps.

But Google Maps returns nothing for the museum, so I don’t know where it is exactly. I follow the sign’s directions the old-fashioned way.

I walk and walk. The cute downtown slowly disappears around me. At some point the signs stop talking about the museum.

I’m thinking that maybe the museum shut down, and they just forgot to update the signage? But I keep walking. And at some point I find it.

The entrance is so small I could easily miss it. I was just lucky that it was on my exact path.

But small museums are amazing, too, and I didn’t have any expectations anyway.

And literally, the first thing that greets me is a Bar-Lock typewriter. A glorious one, with a gorgeous cover…pic.twitter.com/Zui0yh9Uba

Curious: do you know why the uppercase is QWERTY but the lowercase q and a keys are swapped?https://twitter.com/mwichary/status/791712667371208704 …
