Exploring Life and Science

Last week, the girls and I joined some friends and traveled to the Life and Science Museum in Durham. Our adventure began with a train ride through the woods, including a small tunnel followed by a slight hill, which felt similar to a child's amusement ride. We then explored the butterfly house and its beautiful creatures. We were able to see butterflies released into the environment just a couple hours after their birth! One of the butterflies tried to hitch a ride on my diaper bag, but was discovered before we left the building. Other highlights included the farm animals, the "clouds, " the dinosaurs, and the system of balls. The girls and I agreed that a future return trip is in store...this time with Dad.
