Look Out!.....no thats the name you donut!

Last week I mentioned that we were off to the Science Museum in London. Well that changed on the day as 'the grown ups' felt to knackered to bother with the traines and underground in getting there. What we did instead I think was possibly even better!

We sent for a trip to the 'Look Out - Discovery Centre' in Bracknell, which concentrates mainly on Science experiments and play for kids. All I want to add to that comment is that it wasn't only kids that loved it!! Here's some photos from the time out.




These things are worse than the Tribbles from star trek! You find them in your crevasses for weeks after you've played with them.



















up..... up....... and away!!
Fun with heating up the air to get this balloon to float to the ceiling.









Having some fun at the top of the tower at the Look Out.







Photo using the telescope viewer.

















Some strange stuff going on with light and reflection in the light and sound exhibition.






Nothing stranger than that last bloke though.






There's loads more you can do here and in the surrounding forrest. People bring their mountain bikes and some walk their dogs. There is also a really cool obsticle course that is done through the tops of the trees, i'm definately going to do it sometime, its called 'Go Ape'

Hey this is awesome! I think they have places liek this in every city. There's on here in philly called the 'please touch museum'. I haven't taken Aaron to it, yet, but I plan to.

There's also a place in baltimore called 'Port Discovery'. AMAZING place it is. Much like the place in your pictures. I love it!
