California Academy of Sciences and Other Adventures

Yesterday we headed into San Fransisco to visit The California Academy of Sciences. I was very impressed with all it had to offer. We started out by going through a 3 story rainforest. From there we went down to the aquariums, which were awesome! We then had lunch before checking out the earthquake exhibit where we got to experience a simulated earthquake. I can't imagine really being in one-so scary! We finished by checking out the African Safari and Color/Camflauge Exhibits. Anderson correctly counted 70 green beetles! They were pinned so that was helpful! Since we were near a few things in Golden Gate Park that the kids hadn't been to we made a few quick stops to see a playground (where we made new city friends and worked on our monkey bar skills) the buffalo pen and the Dutch windmill.  We then headed to the Sutro Baths and on to Cliff House for dinner with a beautiful ocean view. And we made it out of town before the sporting events let out for the night so our drive home was nice and easy!
