Yesterday we went to the Arizona Science Museum. We saw a water exhibit with balls, water pipes, and music made with water. Then we played a brain game in the next exhibit. The brain game was where you wore a helmet and tried not to get any emotion waves. They also had the sky cycle. You were on a metal bike and a cable and you pedaled backwards or forwards. We saw lots of other exhibits including the bed of nails (it didn’t work), dancing magnets, and tug-of-war. Then we came home and watche da movie and went to bed.

Yesterday we had a quiet morning until 1:00 pm. We went to an amusement park called Castles-n-Coasters. It had a ride that went up slowly and once at the top it drops fast. Then we went in splash town. It is a ride where you sit in a plastic log and you float down a controlled river. You go up and then down fast into the water. It went up and down twice. Then we went on a ride called Desert Storm. You go up, down, upside down, and spirals. Then we went on the Sea Dragon. You rock backwards and forwards until you’re straight up and down. Then we did bumper cars. Then we did the little Indy Race Car Track. The line was so long we burnt an hour just sitting in line. Once we got a car, Nick had to drive because I wasn’t tall enough. We got the slowest car by far. We just kept doing them over and over until it started getting dark. Once it was dark we did the rope course and zipline. Then we did bumper boats. It was a tube with a motor on it and it was hard to drive. We stayed there for an hour. Then we did our favorite rides one more time and then went home. We got to bed at about 11:00 pm.
