Day 1 in Silicon Valley

So far here are the events of day one in Silicon Valley...


We made it to the airport and our flight left without too many problems. It was an hour late because of the oncoming blizzard, but other than that no problems. We made it to San Jose and walked into weather in the 60's that was sunny. After a quick stop to check into our hotel, we headed out for a late lunch on El Camino Real. Then we headed to the tech museum. It was hands on and our tickets came with a free Imax movie (we watched one on extreme risks which had skydiving). There were different games that related loosely to computer science stuff we did, such as wack-a-spam (basically like the wack-a-mole carival game) and some more academic then that. Such as traveling through the network in a packet (thanks to networking class we rocked that quiz!). Our hotel has a "social hour" which we thought were drinks, but it turned out to be a free dinner!
