We had so much fun the first day that we went back for more a few days later. Again we were there from about 2:30-10:00 and again it was non stop. the only bad thing is these late nights are starting to get to us. I have to get us back on schedule and soon.
Today they all played on the virtual soccer machine and we spent most of the rest of the time in the insect and butterfly area.
We also saw an IMAX film entitled "hurrican on the Bayou" it was about Hurrican Katrina, but it was about more than just the hurrican itself. It explained how when man came in and started making the rivers and artificial banks mu7ch of the wetlands on the outskirts started dissapearing and running off rather than being built up by soil deposits. Wetlands serve as a speedbump for hurricans and the disaster was so much worse because of this lack of wetlands. Amazing how one act that people made because we thought we were being smart can come back and hit us later. Michael is still a pretty sensitive guy and he was having a hard time, then when his sister whispered that the story was actually nonfiction and followed a real girl's experience he lost it. They choose to sit a few rows up from us and it was sweet to watch Seri gather him in her arms as he cried with empathy. On the way out she still had her arm around him and was comforting him.
by the way, did you know that your body gets rid of 4.4 lbs of dead skin cells over a year?
