post number 5...

are you sick of these posts yet? alright, so continuing on with the s.f. trip... on friday we went to the exploratorium. this was the highlight of our trip because a) this is right up jordan's alley--i.e. sciency, and he's a big kid at heart and b) i was excited to see his reaction to everything. i had been when i was a kid and loved tinkering with all of the fun experiments, but jordan actually understood and appreciated how each one worked. he was like a kid in a candy store-- pure delight!
the amazing architecture outside the exploratorium.jordan being a table hog... i mean showing our nephew mason how it works:)this thing was really cool... you push a button and it creates a circular dolphin bubble. note the excitment on his face:)the girls, not having as much fun as dad"you're turning violet, violet!"
after the exploratorium we took a stroll on the beach as a family. it was this cool, private little inlet... we were pretty much the only ones there.my family in the distance.

we topped the day off with ghiridelli hot fudge sundaes--another s.f. must! we had such a fun trip... we can't wait to go again!
