Today we went to
Nemo, a large science museum like Brisbane's Science Centre or Sydney's Powerhouse Museum. It was designed for kids but still has plenty of things to keep adults entertained- although we're basically just big kids anyway. It had some fun things to play with and some really informative displays on areas such as water, electricity and astronomy. There was a great display on genetics and DNA which is an area I spent quite a few years studying but have not pursued since uni, so I actually found it quite depressing as it revealed to me just how much I have forgotten.
The building itself was pretty cool, it was a large green boat-shaped building which dominated the horizon from anywhere in the surrounding area. From the top level there was a great view out over the city and the boats docked in the harbor.
