Zellers "Walk with Dinosauers"

I wish I had pictures of the "Walk with Dinosauers" that we took the kids to in Bismarck at the Civic Center.  Of course, professional pictures with flash were not allowed.  It was a very captivating and wonderful experience for Jacob, Hunter, Maddie, & Grandma & Grandpa.  The dinosauers were awesome and really BIG!  It took 53 semi-trucks to travel.  The changing of the ages dramatized with earthquakes, volcanoes, plant life, etc. explained the development of continents and oceans as well as the different dinosauers.  All 3 kids were enthralled throughout the whole show - there was something for every age!! 

If anyone wants to check this out, there is a number of web sites that explains the event and gives a synopsis of the story as well as the dinosauers and its production.  It is really worth exploring - very interesting!!

Maddie's favorite part was the dead dinosauer (go figure); Jacob liked the Raptors; Hunter enjoyed the T-Rex; Grandma liked the interaction of the baby T-Rex and momma T-Rex.  I think Newell just enjoyed the mechanics and expansion of the whole show!!  It was so worth going to.......Maddie keps saying, "Mom you just gotta go to it tomorrow."  Of course, "tomorrow" in her world has no meaning.  If anyone has a chance to go...........don't hesitate!!  It was wonderful!  Jacob took some pics with Grandma's phone, but I haven't figured out how to download them.  If I do...........I'll include some pics another time!!  Zellers reporting.
