Day 2

On our second day we got off to a late start. However after breakfast and exercising, my dad, we began the drive to the Pittsburgh Science Museum. There we saw a demonstration of the amazing properties of liquid nitrogen.

We then went outside to the USS Requin which is an actual cold war era submarine. The submarine seemed large until you realized that there were around 70 crew on board and 10 officers. 
notice the hat :)

After the submarine we went to the Sports Works building, part of the Science Museum. This was lots of fun. They had tons of different activities that you could do from rock climbing to trampolining. It was also a great way to get some energy out for our long drive ahead. Our next stop was Washington DC, but we still had 4 hours of driving ahead of us. It turned out to be more. Less than an hour away from our destination we took a rest stop to let Dever go the bathroom. When we got back on the highway, we got on going to wrong direction, and the nearest exit was 45 minutes away. That added considerable time to our driving schedule so by the time we reached the house we were all exhausted. As soon as possible we fell asleep.
