Space City, Toulouse

On Thursday we visited Space City.

Dad was gutted that the Gyro Extreme didn't open till 4pm as we had to leave mid afternoon to drive to Pau. The replica rocket from afar. The rocket close up ..... kids are the two dots underneath the rocket. Race to build a rocket. Dad had to help ofcourse! There was a replica of the MIR space station which you could walk through. You can just see J at the other end! Hiding from the sun! It was 29 deg by then.



A model of the solar system which really made you see how small earth is compared to some of the other planets like Saturn & Jupiter.
J testing out how it feels to walk on the moon.

Dad tried his hand at weather forecasting!!
We left Space City mid afternoon and drove to Pau. Here is the view of the Pyrenees on our way there.
