Party at the Pla Planetarium

We attended the most awesome birthday party today! It was held at the Kika Silva Pla Planetarium on the Santa Fe College campus.

Before the planetarium show began, the children were able to run off some of their energy at "The Rock Cycle" walk, next to the planetarium, which included this dinosaur footprint on the stone that held the commemorative plaque.

Then, it was into the planetarium for the show "Space Park 360", during which the viewer feels like they are on theme park rides on different planets. At the conclusion of "Space Park 360", the very entertaining planetarium operator showed what the night sky will look like on Tuesday (the birthday boy's true birthday) and what it looked like the day he was born. He also told stories about the signs of the zodiac that were prominent in that night sky.

After the show, we had cake and the birthday boy opened presents.

The dinosaur in the cake roared and moved, and the candles were also sparklers.
