Roar! Yesterday was the Mid-Autumn Festival on the Chinese calendar so I met up with my friend Bao Bao to have some Lunar Adventures!
First, Bao Bao and I got a couple of Arnold Palmer iced teas and headed on over to the New York Hall of Science to play some Rocket Park mini golf!
Here I am at one of the first holes at Rocket Park Mini Golf! The whole course is really cool! It teaches kids all about the physics of space travel and challenges them to complete a mission to send their ball to outer space and safely return home! It's practically out of this world! Roar!
Roar! Here are some photos of Bao Bao and I playing a few of the different holes at Rocket Park Mini Golf! We learned all about escape velocity, satellite repair, space junk, and reentery! I wonder if I'll ever have to put any of this knowledge to use some day!?
Rocket Park gets its name because this is where the New York Hall of Science has some of the rockets from the Mercury Space Program on display! These rockets all look really cool, maybe I'll climb up top for a better look!
Roar! The inside of this capsule is really cool! Get a look at all these nifty controls! I wonder what all these different buttons do? Woah! Turns out I was going to have to learn what they all did pretty quickly because right at that moment Bao Bao got a hole-in-one on the last hole and my rocket launched itself into space! RRRRRooooooaaaarrrrr!!!!! Here I go again!!!
Woah! I set my controls for the heart of the moon and after a brief flight I crashed down in the lunar city of Yue York! Everything here is so different! How am I going to get back to Earth this time?!
Roar! Yue York City is a huge,scary place! I have no idea where I am or how to get home! I wish there was somebody who could show me around!
Luckily, I met this really nice Rabbit on the moon! She was super friendly and said she had never met a T-Rex before! She told me she'd be happy to show me around YYC!
Here we are downtown where Ms Rabbit was showing me some of the sights in YYC! Here we are in front of one of the old theaters! Unfortunately it's been forced to shut down recently. I guess things aren't going so well for the lunar economy since the decline of American tourism starting in the 1970's. Roar!
I told Ms Rabbit I was pretty hungry so she took me over to the Silver Mall for some sweet lunar noodles!
Here I am with a delicious bowl of Lunar Noodles! They were so yummy! I guess YYC has a lot more to offer than I initially thought! Ms Rabbit even said she was really surprised how much I was able to eat and that she was sorry she hadn't ordered enough food. Wow, Ms. Rabbit sure is polite!
Roar! After eating all those delicious noodles I really needed something sweet so I got some amazing black sesame ice cream! Wow! YYC is great!
I threw up this sticker in dowtown YYC then Ms Rabbit and I went over to the bay to watch the Autumn Earth rise!
Ms Rabbit and I settled in on a bench with a traditional Earth cake that we picked up downtown. She said she was really honored to be able to share an Earth cake with a big, strong T-Rex like me and hoped I liked it! Wow Ms Rabbit sure is nice!
Roar! The earth cake sure was awesome! It was lunar melon flavored and really tasty! It was definitely nice to be able to share it with a new friend!
Here Ms Rabbit and I are watching the Autumn Moon rise over the calm bay. She said this was here favorite Lunar holiday and she was glad to spend it with someone like me! Ms Rabbit is such a friendly person, I'm really lucky to have met someone like her on my chance visit to YYC!
Roar! Here is the Autumn Earth reflected in the calm bay!
After a nice evening in Yue York City it was time for me to head back to NYC. I asked Ms Rabbit if there was any way to send me back home. She was sad to see me go but told me that they had an ancient Lunar space craft that might work! Turns out it was a chair with fireworks attached to the legs and an umbrella on top! Despite its flimsy appearance Ms Rabbit assured me it would work...
Sure enough after blast off and a short ride back to NYC I splashed down in Flushing Bay! Bao Bao was really surprised when I told him about my time in Yue York City but happy that I made it back safe and sound! Roar!
