They had a lot of hands-on exhibits which Kai enjoyed.
The place was crowded with small children, but we managed to have a nice time. I still have vivid memories of going to children's museums when Kai was very young, and leaving after only a few minutes because he could not tolerate all the noise and chaos. So it was nice to see him having fun here.
One of Kai's favorite things was this ball run.
He also got a kick out of this human made with fruits and vegetables.
Kai loved the exhibits where he could spin or move objects to cause something to happen.
My wife is still not feeling well so she rested at our hotel in the morning, then joined us for lunch. We drove over to the Fells Point neighborhood. It started to rain heavily so we chose this pizza place that was near where we were able to park the car.
After lunch, we left Baltimore and drove to Washington D.C. where we will spend the rest of our vacation.
On this afternoon, we had time for one activity so we went to the International Spy Museum. To our surprise, there was a line out the door with a crowd of people waiting to get in.
It was interesting to see the hidden cameras and other spy equipment. They also had an ongoing activity where you assume the identity of a spy and then see how well you can execute your mission.
Kai did pretty well while my wife and I failed as spies.
Much of the latter part of the museum was taken up with a series of exhibits on James Bond movies. I didn't particularly like that but Kai seemed interested in certain aspects.
After the Spy Museum, we walked over to Chinatown and had dinner.
My wife says she can't taste any of her food so she just wants to have soup. I can taste the food, but this meal was not particularly worth tasting... a bit of a disappointment.
After dinner, we went to another place to get bubble tea for Kai which he really enjoyed.
It was nice to walk around that part of the city. After all the other places we had been to on this vacation, this is the first place that had a big-city vibe to it.
We will have a full day tomorrow to see more of the city.
A good day for Kai. I also loved science museums. In one of the pictures with the Bond girls, I think I see why Kai liked the spy exhibit :)
ReplyDeleteThe Bond girls got his attention. He may want to see a Bond movie for one of our movie nights now. :)
DeleteI always enjoy hearing about your vacations! It feels like going along for the ride! It sounds like overall Kai is doing wonderfully.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Suzanne. Glad you can come with us. ;) Yes, we're happy that Kai is doing well on this trip overall.
