Da Vinci

This morning we all slept in until about 8. I made a frittata for breakfast and then headed out to the chiropractor. We dropped Dad and Ann off at Plaza Damas to have a coffee and a look around while Ross and I went to see Dr. Nick.

It was the first time that Ross had been to Nick so he spent some time examining Ross and also had some X-rays done of his hips. Nick did some adjustments on Ross and then sent him for some electro-therapy while he adjusted my back.

We left the chiropractor and met up with Dad and Ann at the Coffee Bean before heading to the National Science center to see the Da Vinci exhibition. It was the first time that we had been there and it was quite interesting to look around. We headed up to the Da Vinci exhibit which contained models (both small and life-size) of some of Da Vinci's inventions as well as a room concentrating on his art (obviously  with a great focus on the Mona Lisa).

The exhibition itself was pretty interesting. It was amazing to see how diverse Da Vinci's thoughts and interests were. From war to flight to the human body - he was definitely a wealth of knowledge and must have had the most amazing sense of curiosity.

From there, we walked around some of the other exhibition halls. We lost the folks for a while as they played and touched all the exhibits. Ross and I finished pretty quick as it was similar to a middle school science curriculum - something I was pretty familiar with :-)

After a few hours at the Science Museum we headed home. We were all pretty tired so the house was pretty quiet in the afternoon as we all headed our own ways for a nap. I finally woke up at 6.40. By the time we got organized enough to think about dinner, it was 8.

We walked over to KLCC and had dinner at The Apartment. It was good food but it took forever to come - no real surprise I guess. We were going  to have dessert there but instead we walked to Burger King and got sundaes to eat as we walked home. It had been a good start to the weekend.
