I am super duper excited! Tomorrow (Tuesday) my family and I will be heading back into the city (NYC) because I was invited to view the new show at the Hayden Planetarium called “Journey to the Stars”. It’s narrated by Whoopi Goldberg. Wouldn’t that be so cool if she was there too! I would love to meet her.
I LOVE the Hayden Planetarium! If you have never been to a Planetarium before you are missing out on something truly amazing. You get to sit in a dark (DARK!) room in comfy chairs and look up at the ceiling as if you were looking up at the stars. Then, special equipment displays images across the “sky” and you honestly feel like you are floating in outer space! It’s the most amazing experience. It’s as if you are traveling around the universe watching the miracles unfold all around you.
We went to the Hayden Planetarium (also known as the Rose Center of Earth and Space) two years ago with the kids. This time around it will only be me since it’s a preview show for the media and there is not enough room in the Planetarium for families. So while I’m at the Planetarium my husband and my kids will be at the American Museum of Natural History (they are at the same location) on a quest to find “Dum Dum“, the Easter Island statue similar to the one seen in the movie “A Night at the Museum”. I didn’t think there really was an Easter Island statue at the museum, but I was told by the museums publicist that there really is such a statue. So I want my kids to go and find it (with my husband too of course) and take pictures of it for me.
The following short video is a little sneak peek at what I’ll be seeing tomorrow (Tuesday).

Needless to say I won’t be posting to my blog until we get back from the city, most likely by late afternoon. Please be sure to stop by again later on to read all about my experience and the new show at the Hayden Planetarium, “Journey to the Stars”. I’m not sure if I can take pictures or video but I’ll do my best to describe the experience.
