Museum Visit

Today the kids and I went to the Grand Rapids Public Museum with my parents and my Uncle Jerry and Aunt Joanie.  There is a special travelling exhibit about the Titanic, which was our main reason for going, but we also enjoyed other parts of the museum.  Since we thought Miriam was a little young for the Titanic exhibit, she and Grandpa hung out in other parts of the museum while we did that (he had been through it another time).  The Titanic exhibit was very interesting.  Each of us received a "boarding pass" at the entrance which had the name and basic information about a real passenger.  At the end of the exhibit we could check to see if our person survived or not.  All of us survived except poor Uncle Jerry.  After exploring the rest of the museum, we ended with a carousel ride.  It was a fun way to spend the afternoon!
