Spring Break Fun

Each year John has had a spring break of teaching and has had to commit this time to working on his dissertation. Now that he is done with school, we can finally begin to enjoy his spring breaks! This year we decided to go local. We went to the zoo.....




I think the tram was a highlight for all......


And the next day we went to the science center in Durham. They had a great butterfly exhibit. Emma really wanted a butterfly to land on her. At first, Johnny ran up ahead with his usual no fear attitude. Suddenly he saw a huge butterfly trying to land on him and completely freaked out. He stayed much closer to us after that.....
Emma got to hold her butterfly......

Johnny still not sure why we are letting bugs fly on us.....


Train ride through the Dinosaur forest...
It was a lot of fun and a good preview for fun spring breaks to come.....
