The kids had a marvelous time! The boys road up with me. They watched Bedtime Stories. Shannon and I got to chit chat for an hour while we drove up the freeway. Once we arrived at Turtle Bay, we started by having lunch in the Paul Bunyan playground and looked at the logging museum. I nursed John and changed his diaper, and then his clothes, and then we were off to the museum.
Here are Macky and Ethan in the museum. They were watching a solar panel power the lego pendulum thing. They were totally into it!
Chandler turned the crank on this box to power the light bulbs. It showed how much power it took to power different types of light bulbs.
I wouldn't drive with these crazy kids!
Jaycee and Maddie had tons of fun together. Here they are trying to make a "tornado."
This is in front of the aquarium filled with local fish. The kids had fun trying to identify the different kinds of fish. Ryan was so into it, we couldn't get him in this picture!
After looking through the museum we walked across the Sundial Bridge. This is a suspension bridge over the Sacramento River. It is a huge sundial. It really is incredible. We walked across the bridge with the intent to walk through the gardens, but the gardens weren't very interesting. So, we walked across the bridge again! Then it was full speed ahead to get home. John did amazingly well and we had an uneventful drive back home - this time with a car full of girls!
