CAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES, FREE!


It is free fall days at the California Academy of Sciences . Look up your zip code and save some lunch money while your tot freaks out at the fish. Just for the aquariums alone it is well worth the trip, but upstairs there is also a play area where they can build and smash blocks, take apart puzzles, and, if you are lucky and the Academy has a volunteer that day, they can play in the water. When you have had your fill, go a block down to Yerba Buena gardens, have a picnic, ride the carousel, sit down on the magic bench and watch the skeleton man on top of the world stand and sit for you. You'll know it when you see it.

Big heads up from Ruth: don't sit your precious baby girl on one of the chairs in front of Zeum because the back slats are too high and she will fall right out on her head.
