We went to a member preview of the 3D Bugs IMAX show at the science center. It was interesting to see things from a bug's perspective. I enjoyed watching all of the younger kids, including Megan and Matthew, try to reach out and touch the leaves and bugs and butterflies. Sarah found it disturbing that they showed bugs eating each other ("eating their guts" she would say). It was a bit graphic. They chronicled the lives of two different bugs, who they named, and at the end, one of the named bugs at the other one. That was disturbing! Overall, we did enjoy it. Except maybe for Sarah.

We went to the aviation area of the museum for a bit. Matthew loves hanging out in the airplane and watching the videos over and over again. We'll hope he loves it as much on our LONG plane flights!

Sarah loves spinning!

(One thing to add is that Megan was able to pull herself to the top of the pulley system all by herself which I thought was pretty impressive. I didn't get a photo, but we have pictures of the pulleys from other trips.)

Lots of fun and learning in these kind of places!
