Da wo die Demokratie erfunden wurde?

Ich dachte immer Demokratie wurde in Griechenland erfunden so ca 600 vor Christus,
aber das war wohl doch nicht so sondern hier in Philadelphia, erzaehlen die Fremdenfuehrer.
Hier hab ich heute auch das erste Krankenhaus in der ganzen amerikanischen Welt gesehen, so ca von 1700. Vor 2 Tagen habe ich in Santo Domingo das erste Krankenhaus in ganz Amerika gesehen von ca 1550.
Sorry, I forgot the english. I always thought, that democracy  was evented in Greece about 600 before Christ.But it seems not really  true, it was here in Philadelphia, so say the tourist guides here.
Here I saw the first hospital in whole America today, built about 1700. Funny, two days ago I saw the firsthospital in whole  America  in Santo Domingo built in 1530.

Here the famous Abraham Lincoln with the pen in the right hand--pardon, he was left handed.
Then we passed the Museum of Arts- what a pity, closed on Mondays. What do you think why it is here so famous?? Art? Sculptures? No of course not. On this stairs-you must remember- trained Sylvester Stallone in his Rocky movies. And I heared that he brought in Rocky 4 the democracy to Russia. I think I have to change all my view about history



1822 wurde hier das Penitentiary gebaut ein Gefaengins fuer 900 Gefangene, die alle in Einzelhaft mit Schweigepflicht waren. Dieses Gefaengnis war das Vorbild fuer 300 Gefaengnisse in der Welt, bis es 1971 wegen zu alter Bausubstanz geschlossen wurde.
Nach diesem Besuch musste ich erst mal shoppen gehen.
1822 this prison "Penitentiary" was built for 900 people, long years mixed, man and woman. It was closed 1971. It was the model for 300 jails in the world

After visiting this horrible place I had to go shopping, and wanted to find some nice summer shirts. Look at this stuff( big with dobble click). Who remembers? Everybody over 50. 
The patterns of the fabric are exact the same what my grandmother used as aprons. I will wait till next year when all the fasion changes, perhaps again to Rock and Roll Style with petticoats
I bought some nice children books
Birgit soon at home in her own waterbed
