Extravagance Part 2

I guess I should explain why this is called extravagance.  Normally we stay with Aaron's grandparents but his grandfather was recovering from a medical procedure and we didn't want to over burden them so we stayed in a HOTEL!!!!  For 3 whole nights.  With a POOL!!  Never before have we done this with the kids and unless we can get another good deal, probably never again!  Anyway here goes Part 2!
Boston Children's Museum.  TOTALLY worth the time and money to go.  Best/Worst part???The three story climbing structure.  You always know where your kids are because there is only one way to exit, but once they are in there it is nearly impossible to get them out. 
You basically have to wait at the bottom with eagle eyes and catcher's mitt so that if they happen to exit and you are ready to leave they can't escape back into the tangled web.
Cause and Effect.  This is like The Montshire Museum on steroids.
My one beef is that you have to pay for infants over the age of one, but the museum isn't really geared toward them.  Noah didn't get enough out of it to be worth a full price ticket.  He definitely got enough for a half price ticket.
A real life skid steer to sit it!!!!  How cool is that!!??
Sophie might have thought she was above this particular exhibit
Everyone was just playing with this structure as it was.  My family...they totally deconstructed it and rebuilt it again
She was not above it in the end.
That's the fam-damily!
The train ride home was on a double decker train.  As if life weren't cool enough already!!
Is it just me, or does he appear just a little like the spoiled last child?
