I’m sure I don’t have to tell you that Frankie and I were not too excited to be there. I mean, it may have been a thrill for my nerdball sister to spend the morning looking at pictures of atoms and molecules, but for me, I could already feel my brain dozing off. It was only a matter of time before the rest of my body followed right into snoozeville. To top off the excitement of the morning, as we started to climb out of the minivan, my dad suggested we all bring a pad of paper and a pencil so we could take notes. Well, it was not exactly a suggestion. It went a little something like this: “Kids, make sure you have paper and a pencil to take notes. I’ll review what you’ve written while we’re eating lunch.” “Stanley,” I heard my mom whisper to him. “Are you sure we need to go that far? I mean, it is their vacation.” “It’s okay, Mom,” Emily piped up. “We’re here to learn. I’ve brought a pack of twenty-four colored markers so I can diagram the DNA of snakes, lizards, and other reptiles I love.”
