Exploratorium

We visited the cousins' favorite museum, Exploratorium, on day three. We knew we were going to drive into the city for Alcatraz but decided to brave the trip two days in a row for this amazing museum. There was no shortage of exhibits or people. It's a popular place, especially on a rainy day!

This museum requires you to be hands-on! You won't find a 'Please don't touch" sign anywhere! Especially at the toilet water fountain. Two water fountains....both porcelain...one is shaped like a toilet (which is obviously unused!) Which one do you choose? Well, you can see what my family chose.

Freeze frame water droplets or photobomb opportunity? 

No filter needed here! This monochromatic room hides all the colors. You have to shine a flashlight to reveal all them. 

Who says video games aren't social? Can they work together to win these games?

This was Imogen's favorite exhibit. This was my least favorite exhibit. Dead decomposing mice...ewww.

So many mirrors!

Evan found a drum set.

Is it hot or is it cold?? We can't tell!

There was art too! 

What does it take to power these electric items? A lot of pedaling!

Air is a pretty powerful thing.

Can color affect your mood? Put this giant glowing ball on your head and find out!

It was a terrific but exhausting day!
