TT & I took our first "in the photo booth" picture at the museum

TT is enamoured of Dinosaurs...like most 4 year olds.

I have learned many of them, even how to pronounce their names ((no laughing here)), and whom is what right along with the wee bug.

Good thing I like dinosaurs as its the total "thing" here at Cottage d'Orr.

So I went online this morning while TT was eating his dino oatmeal to look for some local museums to see if any had any dinosaur exhibits.

VOILA!!!

The Pacific Science Center has a perm dino exhibit we could go see.

So we packed up & headed out.

TT enjoyed what we saw. He wasn't at all afraid like he was in Milwakee...the one in Milwaukee was darker, in a cave like area, with dinosaur sounds, growls, hunting, whistling & whatnot. Plus he was already tired & needed a nap. So taking that all into consideration at the time, he was scared there. After their butterfly exhibit, which calmed him, he was in a better frame of mind to enjoy the museum in WI.

I do have to say that the museum in Milwaukee is SO MUCH BETTER than the one here.

The one here totally needs a facelift & redo of several of its perm exhibits. I did really enjoy the dinosaurs, and their HUGE butterfly exhibit, yet overall, I was not impressed after seeing the museum in Milwaukee.

Anyhoo.... it was fun, we enjoyed the afternoon & got out of the house on the one sunny day we"ve had in a long time.

Enjoy the photos!
