SF: Pier 39 and the Exploratorium

The last sight on my SF bucket list was Pier 39...home of the infamous sea lions!  When Josh and I went 7 years ago, I couldn't get enough of their inappropriate noises and dopey behavior so I knew the kids would love it!  They weren't as active this time as I remember them being, but the kids still got a kick out of seeing them!






After Pier 39, we met up with Jim, Kari and the girls and headed over to the Exploratorium...a really neat science museum for kids of all ages!  Poor Macie was exhausted...Daddy's arms to the rescue! 




This "exhibit" was titled "Sip of Conflict."  I couldn't bring myself to do it, but the other Orahood girls were all in! 



This exhibit was neat.  The walls were some sort of light sensitive material.  The kids would stand against it and every thirty seconds a bright light would flash.  They could step away and see their shadow still there! 

I love how Emily and Grace are doing the same pose, but opposite.  As far as I know, it wasn't planned! 
Budding biologists?! 

Can you find Josh and each of the kids? 




We had a great time showing the kids our highlights, but now on to the real reason we were in SF!
