Terrific 2's Fieldtrip

We had a great time on Tuesday visiting the Nature & Science Center despite Lynn and Gunjan having to load 9 carseats into the UUMC van! Our little friends managed to survive the 100 degree heat and stay in good spirits - they looked at fossils and bones, had a snack, saw the rescued animals and dug for dinosaur bones. The stuffed egrets and other birds were a little confusing for the kids "Are they alive?" When are they going to walk?"" Why are they stuffed?" Taxidermy is difficult to understand apparently. Posing for a class photo was an adventure - like herding cats!! Gunjan, Lynn, Chris & I survived the heat too and enjoyed Santi's owl song on the way back to the ECC "hooooooooooo, hooooooooo, hooooooooo, hoooooooo".
Enjoy the pictures and thanks to Angela for getting us out and about - it was so fun!

Big thanks to Angela and all the parents who went along! I know Laney had such a good time -she said her favorite parts were riding in the van and the Dinosaur Dig!

These pictures look great! Thanks for posting them Marissa and also for the beautifully wrapped snacks for the field trip.
Anjali is still telling everyone we meet about the watersnake she saw at the Nature Center.
