America Trip Day 3- We go to Google!


 Our exciting third day began with a long bus trip to the Silicon Valleys home to NIF, the National Ignition Facility, and the much anticipated Google Headquarters.


the scenery outside was spectacular, 




but most of the crew were far too jet lagged to notice.



Upon arriving at Google, we were all invigorated and ready to go around the Google Campus (which was actually more like a suburb as it was so big!)




Of course, lots of selfies were taken with the logo. 
 

But our tour guide soon came to show us bigger and more Googly things.


like their own vegetable garden where staff can tend to their plants


the spacious and colourful grounds,

their own museum-standard T-rex fossil (who apparently dressed up as a mummy for Halloween),



 the onsite beauty trolley where you can get facials, manicures etc



not to mention the SLIDE IN THE LOBBY!



We were treated to coffee and drinks




And moved on into the visitors center





The atmosphere brought out the inner-Googler in some of us



and made the rest of us need a nap to process the information


The ball pit was a great place to lose oneself (both literally, and figuratively)


The models of each android model was a favourite photo place for many.




And the day finished off with dinner in Chinatown.
