Ogden Dinosaur Park






Last week we visited the dinosaur park when the kids were out of school for UEA. Grandma Ann took us there. It was a lot of fun. The kids were given some cool geodes from an educator there, and we had fun watching the mechanical dinosaurs move. There was a scientist cleaning fossils in the lab inside the museum. Ginny's favorite part is the sand pit where the kids can discover fossils and clear away sand with paint brushes. It was done up for Halloween so there were some pretty creepy scenes with human body parts hanging out of dinosaur mouths. I was worried Ginny would freak out, but she didn't. (Good thing my sister Nancy didn't come with her kids....) I did get a giggle out of a giant T Rex skeleton with a small Halloween skeleton riding it's back like a cowboy. Yee Haw! These pictures were actually taken when we visited the park earlier this summer, but I didn't ever get around to posting them at the time. It was a fun day. Thanks Grandma Ann!
