SPRING BREAK, Day 1

Our school had Spring break April 9-13th so we decided to get away and have some fun.


Our first stop was the Living Planet Aquarium in Sandy Ut. It was fantastic! Meagan really enjoyed it when she realized the fish couldn't get through the glass. Most of us loved the petting pool where we got to touch stingrays.




New Amazon Exhibit...



Amazing Jelly Fish...




A "sunken ship"...





Then on down to Provo to check out BYU's Paleontology Museum...


We got up close and personal with some serious dinosaour bones...








And amazing fossils...


Meagan thought the big bones were fun, but she really LOVED the drinking fountain and stairs!



Then on to the Life Science Museum...


Lions and Tigers and Bears! Oh My!




Elephants, Turtles, and Butterflies!





Finally it was time to check in to the Hotel! We went swimming, out to dinner, relaxed and played games... Day 1 was great family fun!




To Be Continued...

  2. What a fun day! I'm impressed. You packed a lot in.

    I laughed at Meagan loving the stairs and drinking fountain. We spent a few hours in the visitor's center in DC yesterday and the stairs, water fountain and BUTTONS were Henry's favorite part. :)

    Can't wait for Day 2.
