I have finally caught up on blog posts! Lately I've been valuing a solid 8 hours sleep over blogging so there was a serious back-log but no longer! Here is our latest 'day-venture':

| Bay Area Discovery Museum |
We recently spent a Saturday morning at the
Bay Area Discovery Museum in Sausalito. Not only is this museum in a spectacular spot (underneath the Golden Gate Bridge), it has fantastic interactive exhibits for children. We just made it to the last days of Adventures with Clifford The Big Red Dog exhibit. It was so cute but I think I appreciated it more (they don't show Clifford in Australia). Highlights, besides the view:
Lookout Cove's The Shipwreck, based on The San Augustin that carried riches from China to Mexico, and explored the California Coast. The real ship sank in Drake's Bay in 1595 and was never found. The Shipwreck allowed children to dig through the sand and uncover artifacts.
The Tot Spot was the perfect spot for MissE and Mr.E. There is a size restriction in there so the cousins had separate play time. Mr.E loved the outside The Stream. If he could climb into it, he would have! MissE loved the inside Wetlands. In this room, they had ponds (water beds) to jump on! One had an aquarium ceiling with goldfish! Also worth a mention was
Cafe Discovery. Frank Klein and Chad Newton, the critically acclaimed restaurateur and chef behind SF's Fish & Farm restaurant and the Muir Woods Café, created this cafe featuring the best local, sustainable, organic sandwiches, salads, soups and burgers for kids & grown-ups, plus delicious pastries from the acclaimed organic Rustic Bakery. My burger was tasty!
