Personalized Cup Ramen Noodles

This is so cool. I would love to make one of these personalized Cup Ramen Noodles. It’s like ‘Subway’ but with ramen noodles.

You can have this unique experience at the Momofuku Ando Instant Ramen Museum in Ikeda Osaka, Japan. The museum’s admission is free, but to make your own personalized Cup Ramen Noodles, it will cost you 300 Yen or about $3.00. If you would like to try a more challenging task then you will want to go upstairs where you can make your own Ramen noodles from scratch for 500 Yen.

You can find more information about the museum here, but it’s in Japanese. If you can’t read Japanese, and are still interested in learning more, you can find more information about Momofuku Ando, the instant noodles & cup noodles inventor, here.

Using about 300 giant helium balloons to fly a small house weighing 2,000 lbs, up to 10,000 ft, for about an hour. The house is about 16 ft. by 16 ft. & 18 ft. tall, carrying 2 pilots.

Bubbles That You Can Catch & Seem to Float Forever

I love bubbles. Too bad I can’t really enjoy them long, since the bubbles pop before I even have a chance to catch them. I always thought that was the most I could expect from bubbles; short lifespans. Until one day I saw a teacher blow bubbles that seemed to last forever.

I saw the room filled with these floating little bubbles. They kept floating everywhere, even long after she stopped blowing them. Some of the bubbles even landed on my hair & clothes; and they didn’t pop. We caught some bubbles with our fingers, that stayed for a while before finally popping.
