March Break Part 2 in photos

Today it was off to the ROM.  I knew that Katrine would love it but I have to admit that I was a bit nervous about how Elspeth would react.  A stroller for security was an absolute necessity as was her stuffed sheep.  Since I did bring those two the day played out well.  Check it out.

Favourite exhibits:

Of course they loved the dinosaurs.  Katrine thought that the embryo inside of the egg was super interesting while Elspeth marvelled at the sheer size of the skeletons.

Katrine begged to go see the rocks and minerals section.  Elspeth saw this and cried “Look Mummy!  A granola bar!”

Nature section had a mushroom display for Katrine and this giant Spider Crab for Elspeth who desperately wanted to pet it.


Girls at play:

In the medival section Elspeth’s sheep got to meet its ancient counterpart.  There was alot of Baa-ing.  Apparently old sheep and modern sheep are quite similar.

While Elspeth could’ve spent hours digging for “treasure”, Katrine was more interested in touching fossils.

One of my favourite photos is this one of the girls standing/jumping on the moon (Plus, I am almost certain that Aleigh is the first sheep on the moon.).  There is actually a piece of the moon in the circle underneath Elspeth’s feet.
