Volcanoes at the Bishop Museum

Took the kids to the Bishop Museum today.  We went to the volcano building and watched a lava demonstration, went into a huge indoor volcano, looked at things under a microscope, learned about wind, and the kids played dress up!  It was a great day!

Today was free day for the military to visit the Honolulu Aquarium.  We decided to try and go.  The line to get in was worse than a new ride at Disneyland, so we decided to try someplace less crowded.  Isaiah had been to the Bishop Museum with his school for a field trip, and we were already downtown, so we decided to try it out.  It was awesome!  They have a dinosaur exhibit going on right now and it was pretty amazing.  We bought a season pass and hope to be able to go a few more times in the next year. (it was only like $15 more than a one-day admission for all six of us to get the season pass, so that worked out great).  We visited the dinosaur exhibit and the Hawaiian Hall.  There is a planetarium here and a lava demonstration, but we didn't have time to see them...good thing we can come back for FREE!

All the dinosaurs in this room moved and made noise!
