Princess trying out the rock wall...
Taking a break before heading over to check out the Hudson River (another perennial favorite)
They all took turns doing an experiment about estuary water composition.
These turtles were also popular
Another big hit? Dredging the Hudson.
Princess could have stayed here for hours.
Our view of Jersey City during lunch.
We watched for a while after lunch. But more fun was calling our name...

Wow! that is awesome! Is that museum in New York?
What a fun day! The static electricity thing always creeped me out... museum gift shops are so fun. And hurray for your friend who conquered his fear of heights -- good work!
Ahhhh, what a fantabulous day we had, Kate...thanks so much...and great pix, too!!! The high beam one is GREAT! :>)
What a great resource to have...we're making our way to the Smithsonian next week ourselves :)
There is SO MUCH to see and do there... and the subjects are so diverse... wow!
I forget sometimes that you live close to all the cool city stuff - :0)
We were there too! Wish we had run into you. That was an awesome day. I had never been there before, but we're sure to be heading back in the future.
Wow that's neat.
Ami has an Audubon bird collection too.
The plush American goldfinch chirps, doesn't it!
We have that very same bird from the Vermont Institute of Natural Sciences gift shop!
I love goldfinches and put thistle seed out for them, thistles in the lawn be d*mned!
Hey! We were there, same day!!! I can't believe I didn't think to ask if you were going! We really enjoyed the day as well. But it would have been much more fun with ta real life meet-up!
