Wednesday: here and there

 While Joshua was at science camp Isaac and I biked to the donut store.  It's the first "far away" place we've biked to. (Although to be fair, we biked to a nearby playground when he was still using training wheels).  We only had to cross one minor intersection and one major intersection, so I figured it would be a good starting outing.  It went well.


We went to visit the "robot wheel" during lunch break.  The robot wheel isn't on the accelerator right now, but the name sticks.  Right now they're irradiating mice to simulate a trip to Mars.  The students working in the lab were so nice (and the mice were rather cute.)  The biologist told the boys all about the mice and so kindly answered all of their questions and showed them where they go in the accelerator.

We had to wait a few minutes at the beginning, so Joshua opened his birthday presents in the basement.  I expect this will be a fun picture in about ten years when he decides to go to Hope. :D
