After breakfast, Holden takes a walk and goes and buys a record for Phoebe called Little Shirley Beans. He mentions how it's good because a black lady sings it and she makes it sound good, not stupid. Holden then thinks about how Phoebe is such a good kid. While walking, Holden hears a kid singing, "if a body catch a body coming through the rye" and feels refreshed about untainted games of kids. He then gets tickets for the date, and goes to see if he can find his sister at the Park because she plays there on Saturdays... but then realizes its Sunday. So he goes to the Museum of Natural History, where nothing changes, so it's a great place. He thinks about all of the times his classes at school came to the museum and nothing changed, but they did.
Response- Holden is such a loner! I'm glad he has something planned that doesn't deal with prostitutes or booze though... haha.
