No.292: Philadelphia & New Jersey Part 4 Hershey's Park - One DrawingEach Day #pen #drawing #sketch

It's already December and I am still in the middle of my diary during Veteran's Day Weekend.  Still a long way to go…  Ugh.

Anyway, after Philadelphia, we visited Hershey's Chocolate World where kids can enjoy everything chocolate.

No.291: Philadelphia & New Jersey Part 3 Civil War Museum - One Drawing Each Day #pen #drawing #sketch

We visited Civil War Museum in Harrisburg which is near from Philadelphia.  They had extensive collection of exhibition.  The Sculpture of Moment of Mercy in front of the museum must be famous.

 Autumn color was beautiful.

I think we could enjoy autumn long time this year.  (Because it didn't snow this year.)

No.290: Philadelphia & New Jersey Part 2 - One Drawing Each Day #pen #drawing #sketch

The streets cape of Philadelphia is elegant.

It is pleasant to see outside from the car.

And then we came to U Penn.  It seemed to be a home coming day.

We found a strange-looking car along the way.  Not sure what it was for.  Similar to limousine in a sense but obviously it was not.

We could enjoy the last moment of autumn color.  Again, the actual scenery was better than the photo.

On Veteran's Day Weekend, we went to Philadelphia and New Jersey.  The restaurant Seafood Unlimited in Philadelphia was pretty good.  We had oysters.  For entrée, I had crab cakes.  Kids liked their seafood pasta with marinara sauce.

No.288: Katsu Hama - One Drawing Each Day #pen #sketch #drawing #draw365

After we visited Columbia University, we went back to midtown.  We enjoyed looking several books in Kinokuni-ya and Book-off and then we had a dinner at Katsu-Hama.

When we got to Katsu-Hama, it was around 5 o'clock.  Most of the customers were Americans.

Another architecture in Columbia University.

No.286: Columbia University 2 - One Drawing Each Day #pen #drawing #sketch #draw365

Another beautiful building of Columbia University, Butler Library.  All those Greek big names were curved on the wall of the library.  According to the Location Service of blogger.com, the official name is Nicholas Murray Butler Library.

No.285: Columbia University 1 - One Drawing Each Day #pen #drawing #sketch #draw365

After the Central Park, we walked to Columbia University.  It was quite a walk, though.

 Before we got there, we found a sculpture park (with lots of sculptures of course) where we saw a white peacock.  She (or he) tried to go out to the street and some people were working hard to chase her back to the park.  Eventually they managed to get her back to the safer place.

No.284: Central Park in Autumn Part 2 - One Drawing Each Day #pen #drawing #sketch

Full of autumn everywhere. I think we could enjoy autumn longer than the past two years because we didn't have snow this year.

No.283: Central Park in Autumn - One Drawing EachDay #pen #drawing #sketch #draw365

When we went to Central Park, we wanted to ride on a rent-a-cycle.  Unfortunately and to our disappointment, when we arrived at the shop, the person at the desk said it was closed.  It was really a pity.  But we enjoyed walking in the autumn park.

No.282: Pumpkins of This Year - One Drawing EachDay #pen #drawing #sketch #draw365

These are our crafts of the year.

They used to look great in autumn leaves...

Then somebody did this.  Now there are big holes and lots of bite marks.  Who are they?  These pumpkins are not very tasty.

These were last year's pumpkins.

Last year, too.  Somebody ate a head of the ghost.
