Drumheller

This past Monday was a holiday for us, so we took the chance to head out to Drumheller for the day. Both Tammy and I hadn't been out there since we were kids, so it was almost like a whole new experience for us. That place is pretty fantastic, I don't remember the museum having so much to it, but there was a lot to see and do. The museum led us to discover Emma's second fear though, she was pretty nervous around the dinosaurs. She would point to them and growl when we were a ways off but as soon as we got up close she clung to us like Sunday pants in a static storm. I don't blame her though, some of those dinosaurs looked like they could swallow you whole, no biting, no tenderizing, just down you go. Her favorite part was these globes that they had everywhere. They showed what the earth looked like at the time the dinosaurs you were looking at were around, and she would yell "ball!" and we'd go over and she'd just spin them around, over and over. They also had a little kids area with all these foam balls you could launch through these air tubes and she enjoyed that as well. We went to the water park in town after the museum and saw the worlds largest dinosaur, which is huge, and Emma was pretty amazed/scared. We thought for sure she would be up that night with bad dreams but she was fine. It was a great little trip that we plan to do again when the kids are a bit older and can get more out of it.
