This weekend I made my first venture to the Tech Museum. I've been pestering my husband about going for awhile, but for some reason he didn't get that a tech museum in the heart of Silicon Valley would be incredibly well-funded. Well, let me tell you - it was awesome! It was like the Exploratorium but on speed and completely adult-friendly. That being said, there were a lot of kids there and we didn't have the heart to elbow them out of the way so we could play. But we did watch them and took over the exhibits whenever there was a gap in the parade of wee ones.One of the best parts of the Museum was the Tech Tag. You can scan your ticket at a bunch of the interactive stations and take pictures of what you're doing. Then you can create your own website to show all the cool stuff you did at the Museum. My husband was a little website-ed out due to my recent abusive behavior on the CSS front, so we didn't take too much time at that station. (Someone has to make my artistic vision a reality when Wordpress falls short.)
We were there a couple hours and it was not enough time to see/play with everything. I've already marked our calendar for our next Tech-outing - we didn't even make it to IMAX! To get your ultimate Tech-on check out the After Hours on the first Wednesday of each month. What could be better than science, games and cocktails?
