Voyage of discovery

Christine picked up free entry coupons to the Bay Area Discovery Museum in a charity auction, and because she's so kind (and they run at the end of December) we had a family outing there today. The amusement of calling Vince "Dad" will never grow old for me...

Unfortunately the real child on the trip was a little too young for some of the exhibits, but Claire did have a wonderful time in the big soft play jungle and swamp areas. Having mastered walking in the last couple of months she was a little perturbed at the strange squishy water-bed/lily pond that we kept encouraging her to play on. In the end the best discovery was the nice, cheap restaurant in Sausalito where we had lunch.

One little speckled frog, sat on a speckled log...



This is more fun.



Hannah decides she has to get in on the act.



As does Vince. "Daddy, this is MINE!"

Leopard shark, Hannah.
