The Baltimore Harbor was breath-taking (as always)! There is just something about the water that calms me (which if you know my ADD brain is AMAZING!!) I LOVE this sculpture outside the Science Center! It's "Arrrrrrrrt" as Kimberly likes to call it {grin}
The kids (and MOM!!) we very excited to find out we were going to Tim Burton's "Alice in Wonderland" in IMAX 3-D!! Wow! That's a BIG screen to watch a movie on! It REALLY felt like things were flying at you! MUCH better than the digital 3-D movies I took the kids to in Killeen! After wiping up the drool watching Johnny Depp...we were OFF to explore the Science Center!
The kids got to go up on the roof to look out the observatory. They got some great shots of the sun with their own cameras. We're working at helping them create their own blogs to journal some of their experiences while we are living in DC...so be watching for more info on that! (They can share their own cool pictures there!)
The kids were SUPER-EXCITED about the geo-caching exhibit! They really want me to buy a GPS so they can start doing it! Kimberly had gotten interested in this quite a while ago and has tried to find a few caches just by common sense looking. She even drug her grandpa out with his GPS while he was visiting us last year. I think it looks kinda fun...but we'll have to see!
They had so many new exhibits at the Science Center. They did a HUGE remodel about five years ago (yes...I had to ask). It is SO cool...I mean it was cool before...but this is WAY better! It was so busy, so we just did the quick tour and will have to spend many more hours exploring!
We found this really cool room with hands-on stuff while we were waiting for Steven to bring the car around. I practically had to DRAG Stevie out of it...he wanted to stay and play! We'll have to plan our next trip QUICK!
Missy was getting tired and cranky as the day went on...but we figured out a way to keep her happy! "Smile Missy!"
While the kids were on the roof taking pictures of the sun...I was just soaking in the Maryland sun and enjoying the view!
The family looking out the telescope observatory...they were WAY up there! Isn't zoom a great thing? {grin}
Kimberly...looking at the sun! Didn't your mother ever tell you that can hurt your eyes? {grin}
Okay...I admit, I had to try looking at the sun too!
It was a GREAT day and I can't wait to go back! It was totally a different museum than the one we used to visit...but in a good way! I think it would have been boring to go re-do the same things after the first reminisce trip...but this has LOTS of possibiltities! And with a membership...we can go lots and lots!

how fun! We've gone geo-caching a few times. Love it! The girls are still a little young but it's still fun for them to find the treasures. You'll definitely have to try it out... I bet your kids would love it! Sorry just realized I'm doing this under Brad's name :D But this is Jay :)
