It was very cool. I’m glad we went.









And, there were benches.

I thought this Kabuki one was interesting.

Especially as it indicates that the aliens from Arrival might have been in Japan 150 years ago.

Then, off past the rhinoceros to another museum.

Although the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum is close enough to walk from a museum we go to all the time, it is the first time I’ve been there in decades.

The museum is known almost as much for what’s missing as what it has.

It was also surprisingly crowded.

It’s an interesting place. But, due to the nature of it, it doesn’t change. So, not much need to go back often.

















If there is something to lift, I lift it.


My wife and I questioned the foot in this.

Then, on the way home we saw this:

Not sure what to make of that…
