A Trip to the Natural Science Center

We recently took a trip to the Greensboro Museum of Natural Science with JD's good friend Nathan and his mom and dad. It was by far one of the best science museums we've visited so far. It is located on a huge piece of wooded land, so once you are inside, you definitely don't feel like you are in the middle of Greensboro, NC! The variety of animals was so neat to see, from tigers, to monkeys, to peacocks, and more. JD and Nathan ran around non-stop from one exhibit to another, and Davis seemed to enjoy the fresh air as he rode around in the stroller. The indoor portion of the museum was just as enjoyable with lots of hands on activities. One of JD and Nathan's favorite things to do was to stand in front of a photo-sensitive wall while an extremely bright flash of light went off, which would leave their shadow on the wall behind them. After the light flashed, they would quickly look to see the kind of shadow that they made and then crack up laughing. We made a full day of it, even stopping to have lunch in the museum lunchroom. This is definitely a trip we will be taking again soon!
