Today is a sunny day．I did some readings in the morning and felt expecting about the coming visiting in the so-called science station．
At noon，at about 1：30，the aunt drove her car with her two chil-dren in as well as the other two who live in their neighbor reached my house．I met the two Dew friends．Actually one of them was only 4 years old this year．They both come from Japan．And they do speak fluent English，better than me．
The aunt told us that today，March 1 7th is Patrick’s day，a festival for descendants of ire Landers here in America and there always couldbe parades in the street．We wanted to see the parade but unfortunately we didn’t find it．Because of the parade，the parking lot was filled and We could hardly find a place to park the car．Anyway，there were somespaces in the lot of library．We parked there and went straight into thestation．We checked the movie list in the cinema．There could be amovie of Harry Potter around 2 o"clock．By the tittle we arrived，it had been 1：45．We had to choose Harty Potter．We bought the tickets in-volved both of the museum and movie．The most interesting thing is that there were not any lickets for museum，but a stamping on one of the hands instead．I was stamped a red dot on the left hand and that seemed cute．It Was still early for the movie to start．We just waited and hung out in the hall of the building．
There were some interesting small equipments that were shown atthe hall which demonstrate and explain some simple meehanical theo-ries for the children．They were kind of different from the science exhi-bition in China and seemed fun．There were a small button on each ofthe equipment and as long as I pushed it in，the equipments would Work and show some simple movements by mechanic．I tried all of them．Most of the demonstrations were shown through many cartoon characters．vividly appealing to kids．
