Los Alamos Los Alamos

From Jemez Springs, we headed back east. The road takes you through Los Alamos, home of the famous labs where a lot of nuclear research is done. The town is also home to the Bradbury Science Museum. Since admission was free, we decided to stop and have a look. Chris standing in front of a replica of Fat Man, one of the nuclear bombs dropped on Japan.
