(6/11/08) Museums Galore

Today was another day out. Mom let Sarah and I sleep in, so when we got up, she took us to a German place for lunch. We all tried a potato side called spatzle (cool name isn't it?). After we finished lunch, we went to a museum about Harry S. Truman, the guy who made the order to drop the atomic bomb. If the museum wasn't being biased for him, he should have been praised a lot more than one would have thought. It had explanations about the times, and about how some of his beliefs are still with us today. On a lower level there was an interesting section about the Civil War. I didn't get why it was in here, but it was very informative: going into the reasons why, and even had something about some of the criminals and prisoners of war that were arrested. Afterwards, we headed back and relaxed for the rest of the day.
