Indianapolis Children's Museum

Still trying to catch up -- so here goes...

Almost two weeks ago on Monday afternoon, Bart, Christy and Persephone arrived at our house for a short visit. We made plans for the next two days and relaxed the rest of Monday. Granddaughter Persephone found a small rock and asked if she could take it back to Louisiana. She decided it needed a thorough cleaning before packing it in her suitcase.

Be careful when standing on the counter top!

The next morning, we prepared a picnic lunch and assembled everyone for the trip to the Indianapolis Children's Museum. Ray drove to Greenwood to pick up Kylie, Dustin and Jayden and I went with Bart, Christy and Persephone so I could help direct them. We arrived first and, after purchasing tickets, went outside to wait for the arrival of the second car.

Before entering the museum we decided to have lunch in the picnic area provided adjacent the entrance.

Our first stop once inside the museum was the dinosaur exhibit.

Jayden explored and found some dinosaur eggs

Our next stop was the Lego display.

Racing Lego cars was lots of fun for these two

We all had a ride on the carousel and visited the Hot Wheels display. Here we saw some life-size cars as well as some authentic Hot Wheels on a race track.

Later, Bart had a chance to match up to a certain celebrity who no longer resides in Indianapolis.

I also have a picture of Ray standing next to PM, but he doesn't measure up.
