LA Discovery Science Center

The plan was to go to Disneyland today, but thanks to Adik Hannah (who woke up at 11.30 p.m. after sleeping from 4 p.m. and who went back to sleep again, finally, at 4.30 a.m. (Huaghhh...)), all of us woke up late..around 9 a.m. After taking shower and preparing and having brunch, we finally left the apartment around 12.30 p.m. So, no point of going to Disneyland. The tickets are too expensive when half of the day is already gone.

So, we decided to take the kids to the Discovery Science Center instead. It's not too much of an excitement I guess, but from their website, I know there's an exhibition of 'Bob The Builder' there..so, that should make them happy. It took about 45 minutes for us to reach there.


Abang and Adik, buckled up..all set to go.


Adik finally losing her patience.."Ummi..please...nak duduk depannn...UWAAAAAA"

Overall, the experiements are not that much impressive. Almost the same like what we have in Petrosains, KLCC. But as I've said, their monthly features for this month are 'Bob The Builder' and 'The Dinosour Adventure'. The kids really loved Bob..and they keep singing Bob's theme song over and over again.

There're little workshops where the kids are able to fix things just like Bob does. Here Abah is helping Harith to fix the pipe in Bob's Mobile Home.



Adik Hannah loves Wendy.


There's a gigantic T-Rex outside the center. All with realistic blood pumping in his body (complete with sound). There are a few other types of dino as well.

Here's a little something on the center.

Within DSC there are approximately 120 interactive exhibits that encourage visitors to search for answers, think and explore. The center is divided into several themed areas.

Anyway, we Malaysians can be proud of Petronas's Petrosains. My personal opinion, ours is better than theirs. :)
