First we saw the IMAX, Monsters Under the Sea. It was pretty good, about prehistoric animals in the sea. All that intellectual stuff really hurts my brain! Seriously!
The girls were so funny in the theater! It truly was a realistic experience for them, as evidenced by these comments:
"If I get off my chair, am I going to fall in there?" and "Are those monsters going to eat us?" - Presley
"Is the water going to get up my nose?" and when the scene ended by the sea creature eating 'the camera', "Did we just get eaten?" - Teagan
But by the end, they were both 'needing to go to the bathroom'. Which basically means, let's blow this joint.
We took the opportunity a few times to talk about patience.
Alison and Jay and the girls met us afterwards and we had time to walk to the planetarium and enjoy the outdoors.
The girls wanted to ride these 'big rubber duckies' so bad. But we had no cash and it was a great excuse and we stuck with it. Next time (maybe)!
The planetarium was a little bit of a let down. In retrospect we should have nixed on it and gone through the exhibit 'dinosaurs unearthed'. We might even go back to see that since we didn't have time on Sunday. They had one real-boned dinosaur up outside the exhibit and a couple other fake ones that moved and roared.
All in all, it was good family fun!
