<p>My mom and my younger sister are coming up with me but they're staying for about 10 days to wait on my dad to get there.</p>

<p>Do you guys know anything they can do while they're in EL? I probably won't be with them for much of the time because I wanna actually spend my time getting to know people at school.</p>

<p>Any suggestions would be great :)</p>

<p>Well, there is a pretty nice waterpark in EL- [Family</a> Aquatic Center](<a href=“http://www.cityofeastlansing.com/Home/Departments/ParksRecreationArts/FamilyAquaticCenter/]Family”>http://www.cityofeastlansing.com/Home/Departments/ParksRecreationArts/FamilyAquaticCenter/)</p>

<p>There is always the planetarium and gardens on the MSU property. Lansing has museums and political tours. There are a few malls within bus distance of MSU. </p>

<p>Hope that’s a start.</p>

<p>When my little brother/mom come down in the fall, I plan to take them around the MSU gardens, to the MSU museum, planetarium, the dairy store for some ice cream, and then to a football game.</p>
