August and I started by going down and getting his Japanese encephalitis shot. From there we went and got on the subway and headed to the National Museum. He fell asleep as we got there, so he napped and ate lunch in the nursing/change lounge.
From there we went to the children’s history museum at one end of the building. Really focused on older kids, but August had fun, and there were a couple of older kids that took an interest in him.
We lasted about an hour there and then went into the actual history museum to just see the current special exhibition on Bohemian glass. August did well, and actually enjoyed it. At one point he saw a case of glasses and mugs and started saying ‘Tea!’ like he does at home.
We were going to walk to the mall but it was really windy. He has gotten good at wearing his hood when it is windy or raining. We jumped on a bus for the last three stops.
The goal at the mall was RAM for our computer and headphones for August for the flight. We were unsuccessful. Or, rather, we determined we can just order the headphones online and wait on the RAM until summer.
The journey home seemed to take a long time and was really crowded. We threw in an extra transfer and a bus to avoid some of the crowds. August did really well, although by the time we got home we were almost entirely out of food and milk as he was snacking much of the way.
