A Visit to Discovery Park of America

My parents gave us tickets to the Discovery Park of America for Christmas. So we decided to take advantage of them this weekend. You all, this place is amazing!  
There are few places...
where are you greeted by big bears at the front door
you can show your strength in front of suits of armor
airplanes hang overhead
little boys can pretend they are pilots
you are surrounded by dinosaurs
  
and then can walk inside an aquarium
explore the cosmos
 
try on bat wings
walk on stilts
  
play with toys
 and living sands (this stuff was so cool)
 ride escalators over and over between floors
  
watch puffs of water vapor
ride elevators up very tall towers
 walk on glass panels in the really tall tower
and see buildings from days gone by
and slide down a slide to the floor below.
Outside, you can
visit cabins
vintage tractors
and vintage firetrucks
pet screech owls 
 
watch pottery being created
go through mazes
stop and smell the flowers
ring church bells
sit in dining cars 
and explore all the parts of a train
including blowing the train whistle
If we lived closer we would definitely have season passes!
If you are near Union City, TN do yourself a favor and visit this place. 
We had such a fun visit! Thanks, Pop and Nana for such a great gift!
