The St Louis museum was pretty cool. They had some interesting things to check out like these glass eyeballs.

The science portion began with a long tunnel simulating a Mars base

Along the walls were displays of our understanding of space starting around the 1920's and by the end of the tunnel, current videos and pictures.

At the end was a capsule.

Before we left we all had an Icee!

Sounds like you guys had fun. I just took my girlfriend to the Boston Museum Of Science and that was very fun.

Sometime soon we are going to go to the Museum of Fine Arts, among others. Its something different we haven't done before and found it to be quite fun.

I love the museum. Even though it is completely immature, the last time I went with my church group, we had the best game of hide and seek ever in the animals exhibit. it was AWESOME. That thing spans 3 floors.

good thing we didn't break anything...

Heh, I went to the Tech Museum in San Jose. Kinda cool there, had a big thing on the human body, etc.

Also your kids are looking a little pale around the eyes, heh.

Very cool TGS, I'd love to go there myself.

Next time I make it to Bozeman I'll get some pictures of the exhibits on display at the Museum of the Rockies--lots of dinosaurs and some cool old cars from the 1920's and 30's.

Off-topic, did you get a pressed penny medallion?
