Our last day before we headed home

Saturday we woke up bright eyed and bushy tailed to head to Seattle to the Pacific Science Center. The boys had a blast. Before we hit there we ventured through Seattle a little to find it. I so do NOT miss city traffic. I hated it!! Jena was nice enough to show us how not to drive in Seattle by accidentally taking us down a one way street.. which is like.. oh every street in Seattle! We did get a good shot of the Space Needle though.

Tristan liked the space area and loved putting the puzzles together:

Then we all had to weigh ourself on all the planets.

I think our favorite part of the museum was the butterfly space. We got to talk walk through and see all the butterflies and flowers up close.

They had a little cart set up with these puzzles so Tristan gave em a shot. He didn't do too bad on the whale one but the wood one was tricky!

We hit the kid zone for some water play

Then they had a tide pool where the boys got to hold hermit crabs and touch Sea Anemones

After the museum we had lunch and then hit the fountain. Very interesting and unlike any fountain here in Utah! Tristan chickened out and wouldn't go get wet but me and Griffin did. It felt good on a HOT 90 degree day!

After this we headed home. We made it to Baker City where we again spent the night and hit the Train restaurant for breakfast. Sunday we got up nice and early again and made it home just after 4pm where we pulled into a nice wind storm. Photobucket

It's good to be home but we had a great trip!
