Here are some of the pictures by Laure Weill that best captured the spirit of the Open Day :)
As soon as the experiment tables were set up, we had people around and queues forming!
The kids loved the easier activities!
Remember how many times we needed to get more copies of these?
People of all ages were asking questions and giggling while
Real Scientists gave them instructions at the workshops.
Not only most of the volunteers turned up, but some of our co-workers surprised us cool with ideas during the day :D
Toddlers and pre-school were not left out!
About 500 people attended the guided visits, clogging the initial list before lunchtime and even the massive, improvised final tours with up to three versions of the visit per shift!

It was funny how sometimes you would bump into another group, if one of our labs' presentations had been a bit longer than expected!
The people attending the café seemed really interested. The audience, of about 150, took their chance to ask all their questions to the three speakers.
...And, finally, the batucada &
Gadjo!
But the best was seeing how hundreds of people took our challenge and came to visit us, enjoyed the day at the PRBB and left with a smile.
AND the volunteers also had fun and a really warm feedback during the whole day!
You can see the whole set of pictures taken by Laure Weill (CRG)

Patxi Fernandez (IMIM) and
