On Day 3 while at breakfast it became obvious that Avery had met her limit of missing naps so she didn't get to join us at Magic House. It was so much fun! I hated she missed it. There were all sorts of things for the kids to do. There was a 'construction zone'.
In that area there was a place to dig. It was quite popular.
Ross built a birdhouse.
There was a fun pin wall. Ross' face is on the right. We played there for a while.
Oh this was a fun spot too. All those holes had a different sports ball in them. So you felt it and tried to guess which ball it was.
Probably our favorite room was the bubble room. They had air going out of this tube and we were able to make pretty big bubbles with it.
Some bubble room videos.
Meanwhile, once Avery had a nice long nap she and Daddy took a carriage ride.
After all that we met back up and checked out the Arch.
Going up!
We actually didn't think Avery would go b/c she always kind of freaked out when we spoke about it. Girl was a trooper though and once we got up climbed right up to look out the windows.
View from the top.
Going back down and still grinning, even in that tight enclosed capsule ride.
We caught a carriage ride from the Arch back to our hotel. Ross was the only one that hadn't gotten to ride one yet.
After each ride the lady said her horse, Elmo, gets a carrot. She let the kids feed him.
Posing with Elmo.
They were a bit apprehensive on feeding him the carrots.
EEK! I thought I'd already updated from our vacation. Once again woefully behind. On Day 2 we went to City Museum. Absolutely nothing like I expected since it is called a 'museum'. I knew there would be things to play on and climb, but had it pictures more like a usual children's museum. NO. Nothing like it. This place was insane and the kids loved it. They helped big kids build a giant Lego house.
Aves was a bit small to do some of the climbing stuff so she took a break and made a clay plate of sorts. Ross and McKenna made one later too. Aves loved doing this project.
This is an example of the climbing options. There were hundreds of places to enter into random climbing trails.
Poor girl couldn't hang with the bigs for the entire day. She ended up taking a short nap. I still don't know how she did it in that noisy place.
A couple of videos from the museum. I'd forgotten how much Avery screamed. She loved it b/c she could scream at the top of her lungs and never get in trouble. I think this was Ross' favorite room too out of all of them.
