"You gave me a little something to take home. I dropped it on the floor. Dropped it on the floor. I dropped it.
If I can only remember the name that's enough for me because names hold the key. Names hold key.
Souvenir of nothing."
I was in Philadelphia for a couple of days. I went down for the King Tutankhamen exhibit at the Frankiln Institute of Science. The King Tut exhibit travels around--and has been travelling for 30 years--and I have never seen it before. I thought it would be a good thing to do, especially as I am leaving NYC this summer. I saw the exhibit on Thursday.
On Friday I went to Independence Hall. I also saw the Liberty Bell. Both are important symbols to Americans. I was glad that I did that instead of doing what I had originally planned; going to the Philadelphia Museum of Art. I still walked up near the museum though as I was going to the Rodin Museum which is nearby. I like Rodin. I actually fell asleep in a chair in the small musuem looking at the are and waiting for the gift shop to open.
I bought a postcard for a friend. That postcard and another from the King Tut exhibit were the only souvenirs I bought in Philly. The King Tut card was mailed to Salt Lake yesterday from Philly. The other card I will just give to my friend when I see her Monday. I took no pictures and will throw the maps I got in the recycling bin. And then I'll just have memories. And that's the key.

Me too, I was in Philadelphia and visited the Liberty bell, but did not have enough time to visit other museums. It is a nice and significant city in the USA.
Same like my boyfriend, does not like to take any pictures becasue he said it's all in his mind as memories.
