The Force was with me!
Earlier this week, Justin told me he wanted to take me out for dinner this week for my birthday. After telling me that he asked, "by the way, did you bring your camera?" That, of course, has had me curious as to where he was taking me.
Last night after class, the two of us met and he took me to a Vietnamese restaurant. The food was good, and unique. That wasn't the big surprise though. After dinner, Justin took me to the Fort Worth Museum of Science & History, who is currently hosting the travelling show, Star Wars: Where Science Meets Imagination.
The exhibit was split 50/50 between Star Wars artifacts and real-life scientific advances. For example, in the first room we got to see a couple of landspeeders actually used in the filming of Star Wars -- the full-size one, and a smaller model used for faraway shots. After that we found a station where we were encouraged to build our own anti-gravity machine using Lego blocks and magnets. To be honest, most of the science experiments were geared toward kids (it is a kids museum, after all) and I wasn't terribly interested in most of them, but the Star Wars costumes and models were super awesome. Thanks again, Justin!
