Aloha and Holo Holo: Science, Chocolate and Higher Education--Take 2

We spent the majority of the day on the beautiful UNC campus in Chapel Hill. Our stated purpose for being there was to see a planetarium show for Weston's half-birthday, but there was so much more fun to be had! There were amazing rose gardens and ginormous trees, huge stretches of rock walls to walk on and a colossal sun dial. There was a delicious lunch at Spanky's, just across the street from campus. There was the delightful planetarium show. And then there were some bonus science shows about chemistry and earthquakes, and a hands-on room all about water. We all had a blast! The chocolate didn't come in until later in the day, when we stopped for dinner in Wallace at the Mad Boar, which was replete with atmosphere. We packed a lot into our little mini-vacation, and we enjoyed every minute!
