Sept 29, we took the late morning/ early afternoon to head to the St. Louis Zoo for a field trip to see the animatronic dinosaurs that were there for a special exhibit.
I think this is probably the best picture of J we took all day.
V and B liked to pretend they were running away from the dinosaurs. These dinosaurs not only growled, but moved also. No, they didn't chase you, but they would move parts of their bodies. This one, for example, moved it's head and front arms.
The "dinosaur prints" were made by V and B while they were waiting on us to catch up.
M and J both thought this one was really neat.
I believe Daddy and J read every word on every sign throughout the entire exhibit!
Everyone seemed to like this guy.
I believe this is the one M liked the best.
And this one was my favorite!
This is my favorite picture from the entire day! After the kids sat on this guy, and got to feel his "skin", we went on a 3-D simulator ride called Dino Island II. It was so much fun! It was similar to a roller coaster ride, except if the screen shook, so did your chair. It also was not on rails. It all took place inside a vehicle about the size of a Dodge Sprinter, maybe a little bigger. We rode it four times, and finally decided to go "dig" for dinosaur bones.
While the younger three were digging up bones, these two took a shot at tooth "fighting". The man in charge wouldn't let them really sword fight with them, but the idea was definetly there.
