Cleveland Zoo Field Trip

Elephants are huge!  

 We had a great time at the Cleveland Zoo on Monday.  It was an all day field trip.  Our feet were tired but we saw sooo much more that these pictures.  We bought a family pass so we can go back again and again.  We could easily spend days in the zoo.  We saw things rather quickly to "see everything" Next time we might concentrate on a few exhibits and do reports.  Learn a bit more in depth about some of the animals.  It was tons of fun!

Field Trip to the Great Lakes Science Museum

Maggie

 Here we are on our family field trip.  We had a great time visiting the science museum.  The kids enjoyed  climbing through this huge hallowed out log.  We learned about different kinds of animals and how they live and what they eat.  It was fun.  We even got to see a vulture eat the insides out of a rat.  That was YUCKY!  Other than that scarring experience the kids had fun too.

Big enough for 15 year old Jacob to get through.
