Not sure if my views of his politics had made me put off going to the museum, I was happy to be prompted to take the kids, and even happier to hear we could turn a hundred dollar outing into a free family day.
And boy, did this family day deliver.
I got pictures if each of my kids sitting in Rosa Parks seat, on the very bus she made history in! The boys stood in front of President Kennedy's limo - the one he was in when he got shot- as well as the limo President Reagan was in when he was shot. We enjoyed history of planes, trains AND automobiles (which brings to mind a movie... Definitely more laughs with the movie although I must have chuckled at some point between 1.) wrestling Rilla into her stroller, 2.) visiting each and every restroom in the 9 acre facility with a toddler who has taken to singing loudly as she announces the details of what's going on in her stall, and 3.) waiting in line for thirty minutes to take a tour before reaching the front of the line only to repeat steps 1 & 2...).
All in all it was a wonderful time spent with wonderful friends ; we even learned some stuff! :0)
