The Discovery channel special was on last Sunday night again. Also, because Grissom was from Indy, the Indianapolis Children's Museum was the first place the Liberty Bell was on display when it started its tour of the U.S. We went to the Children's Museum on a band field trip and before we left my teacher told me I had to spend at least like 5 minutes or something in the music display we were going to see because she new I'd spend all my time at the other exhibit. But the whole exhibit was really cool. They had a centrifuge and a bunch of other stuff you could try.

You will probably see Laura (AKA Monkeynautt) there too!

Enjoy the exhibit. I cannot wait until I get to see the Liberty Bell 7 in August.

Hmm... it's ok! Anyways, she's already there (no fair! my flight only gets in on time...), so she's probably already seen it!
