Science Museum.
Hey, guys. Any of you from IL?? Well if you have, has any one been to The Museum of Science and Indurstry. It is a really cool museum that you learn differnet experiments and a new digital things, that was really cool. So just wondering if any one has seen it, and if you like it?

I have been there a few times. It is rather good. I personally prefer the field meuseum though. I personally like natural things better than technology.

I have a sad story about that museum (I am from West Virginia, incidentally):
When I was in 7th grade (3 years ago) all the gifted classes in my county took a trip to Chicago. One day we go to visit the Museum of Natural History (which doesn't interest me at all) and ended up spending four hours there. The only cool part about it was that I ran into my cousin from TN that I didn't know was also in Chicago. So after four hours they took us to the The Museum of Science and Industry. We sat outside for about an hour or so, for God knows why, until we finally went in. With all that technology I felt like I was in heaven, but we got to learn something fun-we only got to stay for an hour!!! It was one of the coolest museums I have ever been in and they only let us stay for an hour!!!!! So, to make a short story shorter-I loved Chicago and that museum and I want to go back. |

There was an aracad thing and it was really cool. It was a skiing thing and it took a lot of concentration and balance to master it. I did k, on it.

I've never been there. I went to the Field Museum for the special Cleopatra exhibit yesterday, though! That was really fun.

You don't like the mummies? That is one of my favorite parts. They have a really good section on ancient egypt.

Well, I saw this exhibit on mummies and some other stuff and I got tottaly freaked out. So that's why I don't like mummies any more. I might I have liked the mummies, but that experience was enough.

Well I went to the Aquriam and that was so cool. I saw dolphins do tricks and a bunch of interesting fish. It was after the Field Museum.
