Indiana Jones

A few weeks ago we went on a getaway as a family to Edmonton.  The Edmonton Science Centre was having another exhibit.  This one was Indiana Jones in conjunction with National Geographic.  Again we were very impressed with the quality of the exhibit and the boys had so much fun.

There were lots of great props and memorabilia from the Indiana Jones movies, as well as real artifacts and information on archaeology.  We were all given a tablet with headphones and we could watch videos and listen to audio clips.

Cadence was such a good girl.

Each person also completed a treasure hunt with activities to complete.  Here is Bowen's found treasure.

A trip to Edmonton isn't complete without a visit to the West Edmonton Mall.  We spent an entire day at the waterpark.

The boys tried the new "Hurricane" ride, which is a big spinning ball filled with water that you get in to.

It was a great holiday and we had so much fun as a family.

Ashton teasing he was all ready to go swimming at the hotel pool.

On the way home we stopped and visited with Jason's two aunts on his dad's side.  It was really nice to see them again.  They had gotten Cadence a cute little jacket.

Hopefully the science centre will have another exhibit next year so we have an excuse to go again.
