Off to the Museums!

Welcome to the Natural History Museum!  This was the first place we went. What a place!  So awesome!  It is enormous!  I think we only covered maybe 1/5 of the place.  But what we saw was absolutely fantastic!  (I think the kids are acting like birds...like the ones in the tree they were standing by.)

The dinosaur section was, of course, a hit with the kids. 

There were actual bees in there making honey! 

This thing was full of huge ants!  Dave said there was one crawling on the outside of it too, which made you feel like they were crawling all over you!  Eww!

This bug section was awesome!  We kept trying to move on after we'd been in this one section for over 20...30 minutes.  And Joey would run off in the crowd.  And yep, we found him back in the bug section every time.  (Yes, it was more than once.  :) )

We stayed there until Joey was having a meltdown that would not let up.  It was hard for him to not get to just run and go where ever HE wanted to go.  There was just too many people there.  He got lost so quickly.  Anyway, us constantly holding him back made him not so happy.  So we figured it was time to get some lunch and move on.  I would love to go back again though.
