At the top of my list of things to do this summer was to visit the new Exploratorium on Pier 15. Although you couldn't beat the old location at the Palace of Fine Arts, this new location is huge, well laid out, and all the "touch" displays are new. In fact, everything you do here requires touching or playing, which sat perfectly well with Nate and Julie. We discovered late in the day that we could eat & order all our food at the sushi counter, a floating glass top that contained warm water and small rocks of dry ice. Sometimes it was hard to tell if it was a science center or art museum. Either way, we became annual members so we can visit again soon.
