Exploratorium

We'd been hearing about the Exploratorium since we temporarily lived in SF in 2013, but it took us until this weekend to finally make it there. It was awesome! I finally have to give credit to the Bay for having one thing better than Philly (besides sushirritos) - the Exploratorium knocks the Franklin Institute out of the park. We spent the day there and felt like we barely made a dent in all the cool interactive exhibits, so will definitely not wait another two years to go back. My favorite part was not actually one of the science demos, though, but this giant toothpick sculpture:
It is so huge and beautiful!
Most of the activities are fun to do but not super photogenic - the exception being the toilet water fountain that Ben was brave and drank out of.
Hooray, science!
