Today I...

• figured out the bus system on the computer: schedule, route, destination map
  
• Figured out which bus would work best for us
• Took the bus to University of Texas Memorial Museum of Natural History
• Studied the rocks and geology
• Pterasaur
• Taxidermied animal mounts
• Wildlife Photo exhibit by Greg Lasley and John Ingram
• Paleontology Lab and dug through the discovery drawers
• Local geology section - studied the map of Austin and the geology of the area including creeks, aquifer, fossils, etc.
  
• Mammoth tooth
  
• femur bone of an allasaurus
• Lunch outside, climbed trees, took photos and put Dean on top of a bush for a rest
• Bus back to South Austin - 20 minute bus ride from campus
• Got off at Nicholas dawson park where we romped in East Bouldin Creek which we had just looked at on the map
• Made a video of Dean in the creek
• Noticed the creek looked cleaner today than the other day and the chocolate factory Esme and I play in looked greener and better than it had looked.
• Swim team with Ramona, Lilah and Finlay - one legged swimming
  
• Couple episodes of Project Runway - one with family and one with mama and papa
