Yesterday we went to The Huntington Library. It isn't like the libraries you usually see, it's more like a rare book and manuscript library, it has approx. 6.5 million manuscripts and more than a million rare books in it's collection. There were a lot of old books and manuscripts, a few of which date back to around 1275. There were also a lot of scientific texts, most of which were either original manuscripts or first edition copies, from Newton, Galileo, Pasteur, Hooke, Tesla, Edison and so on, it was so cool to see all these books there. BTW, we went there with my aunt, she is currently doing research there so we didn't have to pay the admissions fee, which was 20 bucks per person.

Today we went to Newport Beach, a city in Orange County. We went to the beach there, rode bikes there, and went to a mall afterwards. The weather was great, typical south California weather, and felt more like summer than Winter. We had dinner at Jonathan& Tim's house, pizza, and watched a NFL game. It was brutal, two guys had a full speed,head-on collision, literally, and one of them had to be sent out on a stretcher. It was crazy, football really is a crazily dangerous sport.
