we went to the rom in march.
it was a highly anticipated event,
especially for selah - lover of dinosaurs.
it was so fun & memorable:
a mini vacation to see "real life dinosaur bones"
& we had a free hotel night at the intercontinental!
we left home midday on a friday.
got to the hotel, jumped on the beds for a bit and then we were off to the pool for an afternoon swim.
after an early dinner (selah didn't eat much because she was so excited),
we headed to the rom for half price night (you know i love a deal!)
first stop, dinosaur exhibit - amazing!
once we had explored that area - selah was done.
she had seen the dinosaurs and she was ready to go back to the hotel.
i guess we shouldn't have been surprised,
since that's all we had talked about there being at the museum.
we did talk her into exploring a little more...
we found some dinosaur toys in a children's play area - phew!
there was tons to see and do, we couldn't fit it all in.
once selah was really done, she and jude went down to the lobby
while emery and i explored a few more exhibits:
gems & gold, and egypt - to see the mummy.
favourite thing at the rom was
a tapestry made in africa out of bottle caps and paper clips.
after a good night's sleep in luxurious beds,
we met up with
friends at the science centre on saturday.
packed a lot into 36 hours - it was such a great little family getaway.
