Bright Night

Last night we participated in one of the OKC Science Museum's Bright Nights for cub scouts. It was a lot of fun, and we got to sleep in the museum. In addition to that, there was a limited number of participants, and listening to others who had been, it was not jam packed. So we had the run of the place.

We watched a movie in the IMAX Theater, that they do not call IMAX, watched the star show in the planetarium, and watch some live science demonstrations. The down side of it all, is the children are a little cranky because they went to be around 1:00 am. Outside of being ill, I think that is the first time they have seen 1:00 am.

Surprising enough, when it was time to go, the kids did not throw a fit, or protest. It has been a pretty low key day, they did have the neighbor over for a little and raced Mario Kart on the wii. Bright night will be remembered with much more fondness, when we forget how little sleep we got. The 4 hours of sleep I did get were great.
