Weird hair day - Van de Graff generator

One highlight for adults (and kids) in the Magic House at St. Louis was this generator that makes your hair charge out..

This was so much fun!


The little one had not much hair to go for this but insisted and she was also too short to touch the generator.

Jr. who was reluctant to go (citing that her hair has many "sikku" and "sedukku" .. knots and twists) eventually agreed and charged her sister by holding her hand.


She was right..


My theory that once the hair stands out on edge the knots will go away was wrong! Her hair became even more complicated. My sister did the combing exercise for a much annoyed Jr. to calm her down.

The Magic house was just amazing. They had miniature rooms that are every kids dream. A kitchen, a library, a bank, a hospital, a mini store, a room with water, another with sand, a third one with art supplies, a tree house, a pond to catch magnetic toy fish, the list goes on and on.





I wanted to be a kid and play there!

So, I was a kid and played there..

thanks all.

the one snap that gets all the credit was taken by San..

she did not want to hold the 5D because it was "too heavy".. looks like she pulled it off.

the camera, lens and flash weight 4.1 lbs or 1.9kg

it is like hanging a compact laptop around your neck.. so it is kind of heavy. I got used to it but San's fear is justified.
