Don't worry -- nothing came alive!
The kids had a no school today, so we decided to go to the Royal Alberta Museum. Those of you who know your way around Edmonton will laugh to know that it took me almost 2 hours to get there from Beaumont, and included going to St. Albert and the University of Alberta. Those who don't know Edmonton -- that means I got WAY lost! And that was with a map.
The museum was quite fun and we practically had the place to ourselves. We saw lots of stuffed animals (not the Beanie Baby type!), rocks and minerals, live bugs & a snake, dinosaurs (okay, fake ones), and one of my favourites: a model of a rotting, dead rat about three feet long with bugs and maggots and stuff all over it. I've included a photo for your enjoyment!
I think this competes quite nicely with Kori's and Dan's food pictures they always post.
We got a little lost coming home too, but ended up on Whyte Avenue where we ate dinner, and then I managed to drive straight home without any wrong turns or weird detours. It was a nice day, good to get out and do something fun!

Okay, so your rat is DISGUSTING! GROSS! It's probably a relative to one of Tiger's dinners....especially the one's that crawl over people in the middle of the night! I'm glad you had fun tho.
Who the heck is professor howdy?
Who the heck is anonymous?
The rat must have made Calvins day!! Of all the wonderful amazing things in Alberta, I think the rat beats them all out!! Funny that you got lost by a whole city away!!

Fun Day! That museum is a good one. James likes all the dinosaurs there. Have you checked out Fort Edmonton yet? It's not too far from the museum, also a good one. Can't wait to see you here! Bring your camerea, of course!

Isn't getting lost great! It's part of the fun and most of the memory :)
Not sure what to think of Dan & I's food pictures being compared to a dead bug infested rat :)
Kori
