Air Zoo

For quite awhile Jason has wanted to visit the Air Zoo in Kalamazoo.  This weekend was finally open, so we took advantage and headed down.  It was well worth the drive!

I was afraid it was just going to be a museum full of planes, but much to our surprise there were plenty of things for the kids to do as well.  They had a fun little kids play area with mini-rides and flight activities.

Jack couldn't get enough of this "Harold".

We got to talk through the clouds.

They had bigger rides that we could all ride.  The kids loved this hot air balloon ride. 

This ride was for kids but since our kids weren't tall enough Jason had to ride with them.  I still don't know how he actually fit in it.  He had to do quite the maneuvering to squeeze in.

They had all kinds of neat simulators, examples, and models that you could climb into which the kids loved as well.  When we were about to leave, Hannah told me that it was her best afternoon ever.  I think it's safe to say it was a definitely hit!
