Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery

In the June school holidays Jenna and Locke came and spent a day with us. We stayed home for the morning and decided to head out to the Museum for the afternoon.  

Check out this photo below where Emily won't take her eyes off the dino bones! She looks a bit freaked out really... poor kid!


It was so cute to watch the 4 of them hurrying around the place checking it all out. Jenna quickly became Leilani's guide and Locke became Emily's. 

Locke took very good care of Em and explained lots of things to her..... I overheard this:  "See these bugs Emily, they were once alive but the museum people stuck a pin through their backs and now they are dead!" Emily didn't say much in response.... she just stared and believed every word Locke told her! lol


We spent a bit of time in the discovery room (or whatever it's called) before we left, which the kids really enjoyed.



Check out little Em's pose here - gee she cracks me up!



And you can't go to the museum without crossing the road and getting an icecream from Mures!!!! We had four happy kids at the end of the day!
