New Thing- The Spy Exhibit at the Franklin Institute           
Inspiration: Sarah Tax & Rob                        
Time: A few hours     
Bottom Line: Don't trust the umbrella. 

Reflection: The Franklin Institute has this really cool exhibit right now featuring all kinds of objects and details about declassified cases from the spy world. Ken, D. and I had a blast learning about spies! Here is the description: 

In SPY: The Secret World of Espionage, learn the importance of intelligence gathering and discover how real men and women can change the world every day—one secret at a time. Featuring over 200 historical artifacts and the stories they have to tell—including a collapsible motorbike, a two-man submersible, and a CIA robotic catfish—combined with firsthand spy experiences like personal disguises, voice alteration and navigating through a field of laser beams—find out what it's truly like to be a spy!

The exhibit was a fascinating mix of spy gadgets, history and hands on learning. Definitely worth the Philly traffic!
