Today we combined a few of the kids' plans. First we had breakfast at a really, REALLY tasty donut shop. We started with eggs and bacon, but then we had breakfast dessert - amazing donuts. My favorite was the Key Lime, but we each ordered something different so we could taste a variety. Mmmmm. We may have to return to that restaurant!
Will spent a lot of time researching, planning, and getting excited about Ripley's Museum. Maddie had planned a surfing lesson, but the state park website was not updated and they had moved that event to a different area. She was bummed, but decided a trip to the Wonderworks museum would be her back up plan. We lucked out that the two museums were right across the street from each other. The morning was spent at Ripley's enjoying all sorts of "Believe it or not" oddities -- sculptures of the tiniest adult, the skinniest and fattest people; strange art made out of different things; and so much more. We finished the morning going through a mirror maze.
Next up was a peculiar, hands-on children's museum. The building was created to look like a laboratory that got caught in a hurricane and landed there in Panama City. Everything in the entry is upside down, but to get into the exhibit area, we walk through a tunnel that is made to look like it is spinning... so that the rest of it is upright.
Inside was a great way to spend this day -- playing with science and family!
