Pim & Pom at the Museum: The Big City

After Pom explained that Piet Mondrian’s painting ‘Victory Boogie Woogie’ is actually a map of New York City, Pim immediately wants to go to the tallest skyscraper. When they arrive in New York, the cats each have their own way of exploring the city: Pom uses the yellow cab and the (New York City) subway, Pim dances through the streets and goes roller-skating in Central Park. They arrive at the tallest building in New York at exactly at the same time, and there they race to the top so they can both scrape the sky.
