Museum Trips

Thanks to the culture pass and to the School of Bio-Engineering (Zach's work) we got to go to the science center and the museum of natural history...for FREE!

Watching a combustion demonstration
This wall was so neat. It had computerized "rocks" that fell down this screen and you could use your shadow to catch them.

Spinning around and around.

This is the first thing you see when you walk in the door.
There was a huge wall with dinosaurs and plants and a little stream. Some of the dinosaurs even moved their heads or roared.
Every 45 minutes or so they have a "flash flood". The lights flash, there are sounds of thunder and a bunch of water pours down the stream. Madie didn't care for the lights and thunder but enjoyed the gushing water.
This looked so much cooler in person. For some reason the flash makes the painting look super fake.
