Nagoya: City Science Museum

After the Toyota Museum we went to visit the City Science Museum. From a few blocks away we could already see the giant planetarium! Outside of the museum there is a large park, I can't wait to go back on a sunny day for a picnic!
I can't wait to go back on a sunny day!
 While shopping in the Sakae district of Nagoya we bumped into this gorgeous girl. I hope I have the opportunity to try on a kimono before I leave Japan.
 I spy the Nagoya tv tower! I took more photos close up but they're on my phone. The tower looks like the Eiffel Tower except without the flashing lights and romance :) This tv tower in Nagoya has been a major part of a couple Godzilla movies... Godzilla is always either climbing it or tearing it down!
If you can't tell: Dior is holding an Old Navy bag! I needed new jeans :-p

Nagoya: Toyota Museum

Dior and I took the train to Nagoya, a city about an hour from where we live. Nagoya is much different from our town. I joke that our town is the Hollister of Japan and Nagoya is the San Jose! Our first stop was the Toyota Commemorative Museum. We got to see how the company Toyota made its way from a looming factory to a giant car manufacturer. We have never seen how cotton is made into string... I really think every middle school should take a field trip of some sort to see how its done.
The first example of how cotton is made into string!

Dior wanted to help out haha

Moving on up!

The first Toyota forklift... looks better than my dads!

Time to make me a new car!
