Dinosaur Vacation




I went to this little town outside of Fort Worth, Texas Called Glen Rose, Texas. This little town is chalked full of fun stuff to do at great prices. We stayed at Best Western were the had all kinds of little dinosaur souvenirs and fossils. My kids never have been in a hot tub, so is was kind of cool that they had one. On the first day we went to Dinosaur Vally State Park. Loads of fun but a lot of walking up and down cliffs and stairs. Should have saved that day for last. My legs hurt so much after that. There was dinosaur tracks everywhere. On day 2 we went to Dinosaur World AWESOME! There were over 100 life size dinosaur there and a little museum on the inside with fossils and other items.  On day 3 my favorite day. We went to Fossil Rim Wildlife Center. I got to feed a giraffe out of my hand and all kind of other animals. Its a park that you can drive your own car through, feed the animals and just make a whole day of fun. Another cool thing about the place if you go back before 10am the next day you get in FREE! So loved that! So we did it again. Going back the second day was so much better cause we saw different things that day. On the forth day was mainly rest. We checked out a few of the museum around but I was wore smooth out. On the 5 day was the 6 hour drive back. We took a different route and came across a neat little outdoor museum called Chisholm Trail in Cleburne, Texas. It was free to just look around. It had a old style sheriffs station, an old postal coach, blacksmith that has real people that work it, teepees, and all kinds of neat stuff. the blacksmith that was there said that on November 19 and the 20th there will be a civil war reenactment. Also really cool. I had loads of fun and can not wait until next years vacation DISNEY WORLD. Check out photos from my vacation on Facebook. Thank for reading have a wonderful day.
