Staycation Day 4 thru 6

On day 4 of our staycation, Claire, Rebekah, Auntie Katie and Uncle Tim headed out to Natural Bridge Caverns and Wildlife Park for a day of adventure. Emerson had a MD appointment and the caves would have been too much for her, so they went without us. They had a great time walking around the area.

A couple of Canadian spelunkers.

It's not a buffalo...it's a (Manitoba) bison.

A Texas Longhorn and her baby! Hook em'!

The next day, we headed to the Witte Museum for some culture. They had special exhibit, The Genome Project, which was interesting to look at. After that, we spent some time building pyramids in Egypt (the second floor, actually).

Uncle Tim taking a ride on the Skybike. He's ready for his gig at the circus now, in case this Shaw thing doesn't work out.

Claire and Rebekah checking out Brackenridge Park from the Witte Science Tree House.

The next day, we loaded up our rental van and all of us headed to Corpus Christi. Here's Emerson trying her hardest to see over the rail at the Texas State Aquarium.

And while we were in Corpus, we went to the BEACH!! Here are a couple of beach bums!

This was Claire's 3rd time playing in the Gulf of Mexico. It was Rebekah's first! As you can see it was a big hit. The girls collected lots of sea shells for souvenirs. They were troopers, because the water was cold!

It was also Emerson's first time in the ocean. She loved it, as she loves all water. We can't wait to get back and do it again.
