Took a little day trip to Lake Erie Nature Center, everyones been telling us about it since we moved here. It was actually pretty interesting and FREE too ! There was an inside and outside exhibit for us to walk through. Even a planetarium that we will have to come back and check it when its open. Suddenly Alistair is VERY enthralled with SPACE !!! and any SPACESHIPS!!
Turtle exhibit and the enormous tree that was hollowed out were two of his favorite things
Lots of fish, snakes, spiders and lizard exhibits too, a boy's heaven for sure
Outside exhibits had the animals dwell in the woods of OHIO
Alistair loves the outdoors like his momma
There was a little cabin where kids camps are held during the summertime, looks really cool inside
Saw a "live " mink for the first time, I've only seen minks you wear...yuck
Alistair started hoo hoo ing like an owl when he saw them
Jeff took this amazing picture of the bald eagle we saw
Another view of the cabin and bridge
Lots of kiddos came to see the turtle exhibits, lots of new baby turtles were there
NOW FOR THE "BEACH" Yes that is what the locals call it , it is in fact Lake Erie and if you look closely you can see the frozen shore line
Ice on the lake up until it reaches the deeper part of the lake...there are 100's of shipwrecks in this lake, amazing to hear the history of it
Now swint your eyes and you can almost see downtown cleveland..it was really cool in person, pictures don't do it justice
The old lighthouse at the beaches edge , can't wait to see this is in the Spring and Summer !
