Raleigh Downtown

The day we decide to visit Downtown Raleigh is the day that it pours with rain.  So walking around town was completely out of the question!  We did however manage to find an indoor Childrens museum - awesome!

Play area 1 - Everyday life


The cars and roads

Abulance and Fire trucks
The Abulance was open at the back with all the ambulance accessories!   Loads of fun!

There was an area for shopping, baking, planting veggies...

Jaime helping mom pic fresh vegies for dinner

The second play area was under water..

Pirate ship with all accessories and dress up.  Including brooms!
The submarine
 Play area 4 building stuff... Our first stop the car mechanic...

Ili and Jaime placing their newly built cars on the race track

 Home depot...all drills, hammers, screws wood


Other areas included a fashion dress making and runway set up, drawing pads, paper planes etc


 Play area 5: how to save money.  This whole section was filled with fun things to do to make money.  Eg pizza making and selling.  Pushing balls through this huge suction (below) make it land in the bank and save save save. 

There was one that linked to a huge piggy bank on the roof.  Once there are too many balls the pig will lean resulting in a shower of plastic money balls. (lets not analyse the falling balls)


We ended the day watching an IMAX video.  Animal something or other.  Very funny creation displaying animals in the wild with an added sing along - Ili had a good nap lol


I leave Jaime with Dad for 10minutes while I shower and the boy gets CHOCOLATE!!  I ask what about teh fresh veggies we picked?????
