Natural Science Center

JIMMY UPDATE: Due to some scheduling conflicts, Jimmy will be out of work until next week!

Having said that, today he and I chaperoned a field trip to the Natural Science Center in Greensboro with Holly's class. We had 3 kids total that we were responsible for (Holly, her best friend Kendall, and Timothy). We visited all the exhibits in the building, which consisted of snakes, fossils, aquariums, technology and plants. Then we had to meet up with the rest of the class to see a planetarium show. There were lots of "ooooh"'s and "aaaaah"'s from everyone, including the adults. Next was lunch, and then we went to visit the animal exhibits outside. My group had been itching to see that all morning. There was a lion, meerkats (adorable), crocodiles, parrots, monkeys, peacocks (interesting), wolves, and Holly's favorite, lemurs. She has been talking about them ever since she got her stuffed lemur, Homer! She just stood there and watched every move they made, and trust me, they were moving! I am posting some of my favorite pics of the day.

  1. Sounds like a fun day. I love going to SciWorks here in WS, but they don't have nearly the variety of animals.

    Great pics, btw. I especailly like the peacock.
