Photobucket

The twins take some time to go to the Shanghai Expo 2010. this is the Macau Pavilion a very unusual building. The pavilion is covered by a double-layer glass membrane and fluorescent screens. Kinetic balloons form the head and tail of the "rabbit." In Chinese mythology, the jade rabbit welcomes visitors to a magical fairyland.

Max points out the whimsical pavilion to us, while Rex sports his new "MIB" sunglasses and waves to us.
