3/19/10--Bronx Zoo

Some friends from HCA planned a trip to the Bronx Zoo today. It was such a gorgeous day out. We carpooled with Dominic and his Mom. The animals from some exhibits weren't there not sure why--and the kids zoo doesn't open until April. We will have to plan on going back after April next year. All in all a great day.

3/16/10--Hoboken Historical Museum

We went to the HHM today to learn about Hoboken's early days and what was created here: Tootie rolls, Maxwell House coffee, Lipton Tea, home of the first baseball game, and home to Keuffel and Esser early surveyors. The girls learned how the cross hairs on a microscope were made by spider webs. They also were able to use levels, protractors, stencils, etc..

3/16/10--Pre-Mtg. stop at Starbucks

It is Tuesday so that means Daisies! Many of the girls show up early to our mtgs. Starbucks happens to be right next to the museum so we stopped in for a tea and choc. milk and then played on the little sculpture outside for a few minutes before our mtg. started. It was so beautiful out.
