The Air and Space Museum was pretty cool. All the planes are hanging from the ceiling, which is super neat. You get a real feel for how big things are when you can stand underneath them. Graham sat for a while in the buggy, but then loved running around showing us stuff. He also brought his bag, or as he calls it, his basket, with us as well. All the planes looked like Dusty, Skipper or Lead Bottom from the movie Planes, which we have not seen but know all about. So it was cute that he called the planes Dusty, Skipper, and Lead Bottom.
This plane looked like Lead Bottom.
He found some stairs to climb and we did that a few hundred times.
Running around with the planets.
Looking through a window at daddy.
This plane let you go up inside and see how a plane looked a while back. Seats faced each other. And they had metals stairs that made noise when you jumped on it. Brett went up and down a few times, and then it was my turn.
The cock pit of a big plane. I don't remember which kind but it was a big one.
He is getting really into pushing buttons on exhibits now. This one made noise, so it was a double bonus for him.
And a drum too....seriously he was a magnet for all the exhibits that make noise.
We got there about an hour before they closed for the day, but I think it was just long enough for him to see what he wanted to before he maxed out. He liked it a lot better than I thought he would, and it was great to get this museum in the night we started our road trip. We saw some really cool planes and things that have been in space. And the burner's for a real rocket ship...they are HUGE!
