A week ago I went to New Jersey to visit my uncle! I liked it when me and my little bro got to go on a airplane by our self there! On the way there, we watched two great movies like
Monsters vs Aliens, and
17 again! It was a
blast. I went to a lot of places there. We went to Washington D.C, the beach, Long wood Gardens and lots of Museums. The beach was really fun. We went there and built a big river in the sand to let the water come in from the ocean and go into the river. We also got candy like Taffy's and gummy sharks! Yummy! Going to the museums were really fun too! We went to the National academy of sciences! It had geckos and butterfly's! The butterfly were cool because of all the great colors! The geckos were so cool to look at hanging upside down! Did you know that one gecko has enough grip to hold two full grown humans? Also, did you know that there are new gecko species been created? I saw three new types of geckos! They make the geckos by putting two geckos in a tub for a long time, and over time, they merge together! Isn't that amazing or what? Also in that museum there were dinosaur skeletons that were really neat! I also saw creatures that I have never seen before! I also liked the Philadelphia museum of art! It was cool seeing all the sculptures that thousands of people worked on. My favorite place in the art museum was the place where they showed all the swords and armor, and all the weapons they used during the middle ages. I mean, come on who doesn't like armor and weapons from the middle ages? There's was also a realistic Spanish courthouse there! There was a fountain in the middle, and it looked 100% realistic. All in all the art museum was great! Another museum that we saw was the Franklin Institute. It was so cool! There was a Star Trek exhibit that blew me away because of all the gears and machines. There was this place in the Star Trek exhibit that had a lot of gears an if you connected all the gears together and you added like a pulley and you turned the main gear, you would get the pulley to move to. There also was a remote control claw that you could control and pick up the blocks! That was astonishing! There was also a bike that you could ride on and it simulated a bike that could float in mid-air! I think long wood gardens was my favorite place of all when we went to New Jersey! It was a huge beautiful garden that had tons of plants! It had a tree house place that you could go on and see the lakes in the evening that was gorgeous. The garden also had lots of fountains in them. Also it had a meadow with a lake that had giant catfish in them! There was also a restaurant that served great food like pizza, cookies and pie ext! We also went to an indoor children's garden that had a dragon, and leaping worms(fake)! There was also a bamboo maze and a garden maze that was huge! In the night, I watched a fountain show that had many, many colors. It had yellow, white, blue, green, pink, purple, and all the other colors in the rainbow. Now for Washington D.C! After a three hour drive, we finally reached Washington D.C! We went into a train station which was right in front of the US capitol! We ate pizza, and set of to see D.C! First we went to the capitol! Then we went to the mall on our way to the air and space museum. In the mall, you could see the capitol on one side, and you could see the national monument on the other side. Once we entered the air and space museum, we saw a lot of airplanes and spacecraft hanging from the roof! They look like models, but they aren't, they are the real thing! We also saw real rocket ships that actually orbited the moon! We went inside a roller coaster simulator that felt like the real ride! After that, we went to the natural history museum! In the natural history museum we saw a lot of dinosaurs there. I also saw many other creatures too! I saw more butterfly's, and we also saw a big insect zoo with scorpions and Beatles, and cockroaches! It was
digesting! We also saw lots of ocean animals. Last but not least, we had to see the white house! It was a amazing sight! There was a lot of flowers and plants in the front yard! After a long and relaxing day, we decided to go back to the car using the subway. After another three hour drive back, we finally reached New Jersey! Another 6 hour plane ride back home to San Jose was relaxing. For the first half of the plane ride, I slept, and for the second half, I watched T.V shows! All in all I had a wonderful time in New Jersey!
Here is a math problem. Try your best to solve it. It is OK if you get the wrong answer, just try it. After a lot of people have given answers, I will tell the answer. I will give a problem every week. This is a very interesting puzzle I saw form a book, so I decided to use it.

Museums are really great! I have been to a lot of museums. One of my favorite museums is the Tech Museum. I like the Tech Museum because of all the activities there. I like the Roller Coaster simulator because you get to design your own Roller Coaster! I also like the i-max theater because it is big and you actually get the felling that you are in in the movie that is shown there. Did you know that the i-max theater can hold, contain, 2,700,000,000 m&ms! Also did you know that it can hold up to six houses inside? One of the most interesting facts is that it's film roll for the Harry Potter movies is five miles long! One of the biggest hits in the museum is the Virtual World exhibit! The Virtual World exhibit is a online computer game that you can play with other players. It was created by kids! In the game you can dress your self, you can go into a house, you can create other items, you can fly, and you can go on jet skis in the game! It is really fun. All in all tell us about your favorite museum.
