25th MIT Reunion, Boston


We went to MIT for my 25th reunion. It was huge fun. Leo got to sleep in a dorm. 


We visited the new Stata Center. It's a new building by Gehry (which means it looks very strange). It is also filled with wacky art. And robots. This is where they keep their new robot projects.


Of course, visiting Boston means eating Toscanini's ice cream! Leo also got his first hot vanilla which is like a hot chocolate, but vanilla.


And we saw the Boston Pops at Symphony Hall. This was the first time Leo's heard an orchestra. They did Pixar movie music with Pixar animation, making it very accessible for all the kids. MIT rents out Symphony Hall once a year for reunion.

And while Leo did not get to see the Sodium drop or any other hacks, we did go to the MIT Museum and check out the Arthur Gansen exhibit of crazy engineering art:


Good news is Leo still wants to go to MIT. While he hated the weather (who doesn't?) I think he really enjoyed the craziness of it all.
