11/21 - Jim visits the City of Brotherly Love


Because Jim so liked the art at the church art show (even though he called it "primitive" and inferior to art on his planet), I decided to allow him to come along on a school trip to the Philadelphia Museum of Art. He thoroughly enjoyed himself.

We spent most of our time inside the Museum, but we also walked to the Rodin Museum, and hung out on the huge steps, made famous in the Rocky movies.

Mostly, he behaved himself, except for with the older iconic European art. He kept begging me to let him snuggle with the various Madonna and Child statues in that area. I explained over and over that they are very old and fragile, and besides, that would be a bit inappropriate. He kept saying that they looked so inviting and that he'd be super-duper careful.
