R.A.T. Your Rodent Around-the-World Traveler (a.k.a. Raz)

Hi, My name is R.A.T., which stands for Rodent Around-the-World Traveler (I like to think it stands for Rodent Adventure Traveler), but everyone here calls me Raz for short. I would love to share my adventures with you. I left my rat family in early January to seek adventure. Everyone said "head west young rat," so that is what I did. I headed west to San Diego, California where I ran out of land and had to hop on a ship to continue my journey. It turns out that the ship I found was going west around the world--a dream come true! The MV Explorer is home to the famous Semester at Sea study abroad program. My shipmates include 629 college students and about 150 faculty, staff, lifelong learners, and family members. Things are really busy here on the ship and even busier when we are in port. Come follow me vicariously as I take this incredible journey. Yours, R.A.T.

P.S. I had such a great time on the voyage that the adventure continues!!!!

Chicago - Art & More Art? - Part 1


Next stop --the Art Institute, the AIC for those in the know. Kids Free! Hopefully rat kids too.
Lions guarding museums are so snooty.
Another lion! This one is from India.
Now this is an odd looking cow!
Interesting sculpture. I heard it was by Calder.
Here is an even more interesting sculpture.
Who wraps their dog in aluminum foil and calls it art?
Who wraps their trash in aluminum foil and calls it art!?
Seems like a lot of wasted space. Where are my roller skates?
I need a breather from all that "art"!
A view of Millennium Park.
