Hodge

M is off work to get some house stuff done before the end of the month. But he took a break from his 'to do' list and took the kids to the Diefenbunker.

They couldn't get on the tour but M was there and he's as good as a tour guide.
The boy's guinea pigs are doing well. And since they get handled a lot they are super tame!
We tried out a new restaurant on Friday night. Mongolian Village.
It also gave us the opportunity to see what they remembered from
Story of the World 2 (Chapter 21) regarding the Mongols.
E loved that you get to pick whatever you want from an extensive buffet.
A's favourite was the rice paper and soup.
Super fun trying new foods with the kids.

RoadTrip

Any guesses where we went today?
Maybe some visual clues will help.
We were at the BioDome.
M had never been and the last time A was there he was two years old.
Nothing like a move to get you to check some things off your 'to-do' list.
E's favourite spot? In the Laurentian Zone with the big fish.
A's favourite spot? Sub-Antarctic Island Zone.
He and this penguin struck up a friendship.
A came home with a stuffed animal penguin from the store .... he named it Gwin.
M's favourite spot was in the Laurentian's, specifically the lynx.

I think my favourite activity was looking for the sloth in the Tropical Rainforest Zone .... even though I never did find it. But my favourite picture is this one of the monkey. The way the branch curls at that location tricks my eye into thinking it's his tail that's curled.
Very interesting picture. Good job M.
