I like IMAX Dome

On Sunday we spent the afternoon in The Tech (www.thetech.org), the technical museum in San Jose. The regular entrance fee is $10 but with AAA card it was only $7. Your entrance is also valid for one IMAX show. The museum is an interactive exhibition from elementary physics through gene- to space technology. It was really interesting, and with children it is a must see. The whole experience was somewhat similar to what Jövő Háza (House of future, my wife used to work there back in Budapest) offered or what the Csodák Palotája (Palace of Wonders) offers.

The museum has an IMAX Dome theatre where there're several documentaries shown throughout the day. We watched the Under the Sea show. It was just amazing. I don't know if there's an IMAX Dome cinema in Hungary, but if yes, you must try this out. I got dizzy a couple of times, but still it definitely was worth it! The show is not in 3D, but the unique dome-like canvas gives an experience you cannot match to anything else. We will definitelly go back to watch the Hubble, Born to be Wild, Human Body and maybe also Tron Legacy! For $10 it is cheaper than any other movie theatre!!

After finishing at the museum I discovered an ad on the street advertising the upcoming Anime Con. I've never been to such a program, and I would definitelly never-ever dress up like an anime hero (hm.. maybe after loosing that 30 pounds and revealing the six pack hiding under my thick layer of bacon I might dress up as teacher Onizuka or Ichigo. HAHA ... not! Seriously!)

Eikichi Onizuka (えいきちおにずか)

Unfortunately the Anime Con will be held on Memorial Day weekend and we plan to go to Yosemite National Park for the three days long weekend. Next time...

And on the street I saw my beloved Dodge Charger from the 70's. This was the second time in my life to see such a car. Hopefully before the last drop of oil disappears from Earth I'll have the money to buy one of these and enjoy it for a little while!
