Attractions In Texas

One thing about Texas is that it has so many places to visit. One of the places we visited was the Perot Science Museum. My favorite exhibit in the museum was the Sports room. It was very interactive. You could race fast people and animals. We raced a cheetah, which was gone before we put one foot down. It taught you how your body works. Another exhibit was a fossil room, where you could learn about extinct animals. Again, it was very interactive. Ethan and I could create prey or predator and fight each other. The prey had to defend itself against the predator, whatever it might be.

Next, we went to the Melting Pot for my birthday dinner. It was a marvelous fondue restaurant that we went to with my mom's friend, Kerry. It was my first time having fondue. It was fun because you could cook your meat in the fondue. I had s'mores fondue for dessert!

After Dallas, we traveled to Houston. While we were there, we went to the Space Center. We learned about the moon landing with Apollo 11. We saw some real spacecrafts, and we got to go into a cargo plane and a space shuttle. I had 2 favorite parts: a Mars presentation and a science presentation. The Mars presentation talked about the rovers and how we will get a human on Mars by 2040. The science presentation was about air pressure in space and what would happen to different objects without air in space. 

Now, we are in Corpus Christi, and we are enjoying the weather and beach. Stay tuned for more blogs by Erin.
