Day 3, Spokane, WA







Headed up to Spokane, WA today to explore Riverfront Park. This was home to the World's Fair in 1974 (is there still a World Fair?), and the boys rode some famous carousel associated w/it. Only got lost a little bit getting there, but luckily found the tourism center that not only gave us good directions, but also some coupons for discounted tickets! The boys enjoyed a skyride over Spokane Falls-Megan and Mommy passed as Mommy is not fond of dangling high in the sky in a small box supported only by a cable. Don and the boys went to an IMax movie-some movie on sea creatures. Megan and Mom walked around and enjoyed some girl time. Perhaps a highlight for the boys was riding the ferris wheel......alone......Mom was just a wee bit nervous w/this but did keep her shaking hands steady enough to take a few pics of the rite of passage. Did not get lost returning to Coeur D'Alene.
Grandma and Aunt Amy arrived today, as well as many other aunts and uncles. Again, enjoyed some swimming and a yummy yummy seafood buffet.
