back to the museum

Toronto, 2012.01.15

It was a sunny gorgeous day, today; naturally, I took Kenny to the museum.

I wanted to see the new Maya exhibit, and he wanted to see the dinosaurs. We did both, to the satisfaction of neither I imagine.

Fun fact: according to the ROM, there's nowhere in the Maya calendar that talks about Dec 23, 2012 being the end of the world. Just the end of the current era; the Mayans even had references to dates past the popular "end of the world" date.

Kenny concluded our visit by saying, "I like the musimin." (his word for "museum").
