More from the trip



Hands from the Rodin museum, with a little photoshop



My first trip to China Town

Give it hell Ben!



Darth on the steps



My attempt at getting a good picture of the line to see the star wars exhibit was very nearly
thwarted by this robust woman in front of us. Every time I tried to get a picture she would
lean her girth over the railing and block the shot. Not to mention she was adding to her
annoyance by bitching her husband out for something, while he just stood there with a
please kill me know look on his face.




Well I keep getting errors when I try to upload photos so that's all for this post

Trip to Philly

After seeing an add in an art magazine for a Frida Kahlo exhibit Raven and I decide to head to Philly for a few days, to not only see Frida but to also take in a few of the sites in the City of Brotherly love.

So here are few of the things that we did.






This may be the smallest motel room I have ever stayed in.




The snack room smelled of urine



Not so much a thermostat as a jumbo thermometer so
you can tell if you need to turn on the heat or the air.

Oh well you get what you pay for it was only 67 a night and at least it was clean.



Photo op at the Franklin, The star wars cast doing a farewell ceremony
for the exhibit in the museum. We will be coming back to for that later.

That big fountain, I don't know what it's called



Me and Raven in front of the fountain

We got our picture taken by "the fireman" who assured us
"I won't run away with your camera, some do, but I won't"



World's worst job
