Sunday Oct 27th Franklin Institute, then Prince Tea House

Museum Fun ❀🙧

  I did so much running around on Sunday, I'm still tired. My cousin and her kids were visiting for Halloween weekend so we were out doing family things for like three days. One of the last things was visiting the franklin institute!

They were doing a few Halloween specific activities (mainly for kids) but it was fun and the usual science exhibits were really interesting.

Me messing around with a synthesizer.

One really cool exhibit, Amazing Machine, was about complex machines and showed the inside of an antique singer sewing machine! Even cooler, the had Maillardet's automaton, the Draughtsman-Writer! Σ(°ロ°)!!

It originally had an outfit on, but it's really old and has been through a fire, so now the brass body frame is exposed. They have the automaton displayed with the clockwork exposed from the back (visible through glass).

Getting Tea ❀🙧

 Here are some detail photos of the outfit I wore all Sunday. I coordinated it to twin w/ my homie. If my hair looks blue instead of purple, it's because it is. I refreshed my hair color wrong.
