Field Trip to Como Conservatory


"Four-to-Go" plus Jenn and Gramma....lunches packed and off to Como Conservatory to experience some Tropics in the middle of a Minnesota winter. What a great idea with the blustery wind blowing outside. We're getting cabin fever even if this is the month of spring
Jenn called me this morning, and since I had Logan for the day (daycare cancellation)...it sounded like a great idea! Into the van with 4 car seats, hard boiled eggs, cheese and crackers, fruit and pepperoni. We were on our way to Como Conservatory. It was so warm and wonderful in there. We piled our bags and jackets in the stroller and chased little boys through the tropical climates, stopping to discover fish, wishing well fountains, an ant colony, green bananas growing on tall trees, coconuts and dates. Such eager students!! Even Logan was inquisitive of the stingray...and wanted to be the first one with his hands in the Koi Pond. Am I surprised?

Gus checking out the bug scene!
