Pre-thanksgiving family outing

Had a great time @ Caltech

We enjoyed a late sleep in and started the day with brunch at Denny’s. We headed to Caltech for a long overdue visit. We all got some Caltech swag. The Caltech bookstore attendant recognized Atom and Marie and commented how much they’ve grown. We took in a nice stroll through the campus and a game of frisbee. Our frisbee game was temporarily postponed due to Jackie’s bad throw into Millikan pond. After a few hand made splashes by Marie to make water currents to push the frisbee near the edge, Atom managed to pull in the frisbee with a twig he found nearby. After a fun time at Caltech and our usual photo spot we headed to Barnes and Nobles in Burbank which we decided on the spot. After a relaxing time of book browsing at Barnes we had dinner at a nearby Chevys. The food was meh. As we headed home we stopped by Home Depot and Target. It was a long and fun day, we were all glad to be home.

The Theory of Everything at Pasadena

The Theory of Everything at Pasadena

⋅ Family Time, Uncategorized ⋅

We spent Friday evening in Pasadena to see the “The Theory of Everything” movie, the story of Stephen Hawking. We started the evening with dinner at CPK and a brief stroll around Pasadena city hall area. We then spent some time at Vroman’s bookstore, book shopping, where Marie and Atom took in a game of checkers. The kids bought the card game Spot It which we played at Vroman’s cafe, while Jackie and I enjoyed a tasty cup of coffee. We ended the night at the Archlight theatre to watch the movie. The theatre had a assigned seating so we managed to get decent seating. The kids enjoyed the movie and more importantly now have a better understanding of the life of a great and still living physicist. In summary, a great and awesome family outing. Btw Go Physics!
