The Exploritorium

This place was so cool!! And it was absolutely huge. 

We got ready, ate breakfast, caught the muni and went to the Exploritorium. It was a huge museum/science center where you could play and learn things.

When we first walked in we saw this:

It was a toilet made into a drinking fountain. The kids thought that was cool. They had experiments to explain all kinds of science things. They had fog machines, optical illusions and sense perception displays. 

They even had a display that would move and follow your movements. It was weird!
Courtney even got to try and make a plane and put it on top of a wind tunnel to see if it would stay up.
After a couple of hours the kids were tired so we ate a snack, loaded back on the cable car and then caught a bus to our hotel.

I have to say that if we had had the muni experience we had today, yesterday, we would not have use it so much. The cable cars/buses were really late and the drivers were so rude today. But we are done with them so it's okay.
