Musuem Trip

This year instead of going somewhere fun out of state for are family vacation we stayed here. We took one day before school started and choose some museum's around Salt lake to visit. We started at the Living Planet Aquarium The Coolest things there were the octopus, they had three types of jelly fish one kind changed colors. The Sting rays you could feel, they were rubbery and slimy. It was something to visit once and then never go back again. It is very small and for the price they charge it doesn't seam worth it.

Then it was lunch time, so we thought the boys might like the Mayan Restaurant. they liked the cliff divers, although we didn't much like the food.

Randy's friend had told him about this store called the NPX. He told him it was off of 215 and California Ave. We couldn't find it, so we pulled into a gas station and looked it up in the phone book and found three listings we choose the closes to where we were. It is off of Redwood rd. and a block south of California and a block west of redwood rd, so much for it being right off of 215 and California.
Its kind of a warehouse store, its worth going to if you're in the area but not worth just going to.

Then we headed to the Discovery Museum at the Gateway mall. Buy the time we got there we only had an 1 1/2 to go through it. The coolest part I thought was the ball area. the Tyler like the news station area, he is very into watching the news lately , so I think he like the idea of sitting behind the news desk. Clays favorite was the climbing wall. It wasn't as fun as we thought it would be. So since we were at the gateway and Randy had never been to the Clark Planetarium we visited it. My favorite thing there is watch the pendulum,and how the earth is moving making it move. I think Randy's favorite was the moon rocks and the meteorites and the boys like the 2news weather board.

All in all we had a great time, but we were all a little disappointed in the museum's. We probably well never go back to any of them again. But it was fun spending time together as a family. next year we will have to do something fun and exciting.
