(Involuntarily) Part 2 of the Previous Entry
Ok, so if you've seen my previous entry, you should know that there's something missing from it. I uploaded some photos from the Museum of Science, in Boston, but I wanted to make a sort of image slide template that scrolled on the screen... However, the software had a different opinion; guess who won... Anyway, this means that you get a bonus entry from me:) One exclusively dedicated to some of the pictures I took that day. And this time I'm not going to try anything fancy, I promise. So, here goes nothing:
My first glimpse of Boston:
And this is the museum's entrance:
Talk about hanging decorations, huh?
A few images from the section called "Mathematica" (Caryn and I were both crazy about it):

This one is really neat - look at it closely: to the left you'll see me and to the right you'll see Caryn (or part of us, anyway):
Check these out:

There's no connection, I just felt like uploading them:))
Also, I was telling you how you can weigh yourself on the Moon or on Jupiter:
 |  |
These two show a model of a hypothesis describing how the pyramids were most likely built:

Now, you can picture this sequence as sort of following the "evolution" of transportation:

And then, an alternative :))
What you don't see in the picture is that in front of this handsome lad was another bike that the visitors could hop on; as they peddled, so did the skeleton. Neat, huh?
My "muse:"
From the astronomy section:

And these are from the really loud, really "sparkly" lightning show:

And since it was around the holidays:
Doesn't he look festive?
Before putting an end to this entry, let me introduce you to my newest friend:
This computer had a palm recognition device in its proximity and if you placed your hand inside and typed in your name, it "talked" to you, offering information about the museum and things like that. Also, it is programmed to "remember" you through this palm-scanning mechanism. So, as it "told" me, I now have a friend in Boston:)
That's about it where photos are concerned...
Today everyone returned on campus and classes start tomorrow. It's been a really hectic day but now that everyone is back it actually feels like there wasn't an entire month in which we weren't here...
Ok, take care, everyone! Keep in touch!
