In the almost 6 years we have lived in Pittsburgh, we had never been to Philadelphia. It is located in the same state, but works out to be a farther drive than cities such as Washington D.C. and Baltimore, Maryland. So, we decided to make a quick weekend of it over Easter. There was a King Tut exhibit showing at the Franklin Institute, and with a glowing recommendation from friends, we decided to go. The only thing Matt wanted to see was the Rocky statue. We were surprised to find Rocky at the bottom of the stairs located at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, not at the top. Therefore, Matt did not get to do his rendition of Sylvestor Stallone running up the stairs from the movie.
Troy's favorite parts were visiting the Train Factory inside the Franklin Institute. He was able to ride the the large train and hear the train sounds.
He also tried out for the part of King Tut. Troy did not understand, however, that even at the youthful age of 9, King Tut was still older than him when he began his rule. King Tut also never had a pacifier, or at least they did not have one on display.

Being pregnant, I enjoyed my Easter breakfast at the Four Seasons Hotel. Who knew scrambled eggs could taste so good.
