The Clay Center is a science museum in downtown Charleston. We visited there today and I must be getting science-centered out as I took zero pictures. Doh! While the Clay Center wasn't the best one they've been to, the kids certainly had a good time. That's a cool thing about kids--it doesn't matter if something is the best. Take them to a park, a playground, a science center, whatever--they love it! Even if they've been to better ones before, they don't care, they'll have fun wherever! If they complain, it's usually because another sibling is bugging or because we have to leave. It's rarely, if ever, about the playground or the science center being not up to par. #lifelessons
Wednesday, 03-April
Today... was crazy. I just don't know how else to say it--we're nutsoes! Official graduates from CGNU--Crazy Go Nuts University.
First, we went to Cleveland, Ohio to catch the Indians
We were up in these seats and it was coooooold!
Our ushers did us something awesome--they moved us to the sunny side out in right field! And gave us vouchers for $10 in food! Granted, that doesn't go far at a ballpark, but we're grateful!
We spent the last couple innings up in the kids zone which was indoor, up over beside the foul pole in right field, then we sped off to Pittsburgh!
And made it to our next game. We got a little lost in this park trying to find our seats, but we eventually made it. I'm not much a fan of the Pirates--they've always been my least favorite MLB team for no reason I can explain, they just are. Still, I liked the stadium!
I unfortunately can't say I like the crowd. We had a number of getting-drunk college students around. When I took Benjo to the bathroom, there were a couple guys running a gambling operation which the police came in and broke up as we were leaving. And while this isn't much about the crowd per se--I spent the 2nd through the 8th inning in the dollar-hot-dog line. Yeah, that was awesome. Or... not.
View from our seats.
This was the view just around the corner from our seats--an awesome view of the bridge.
By the time we made it home, it was laaaaate. Like 2am or so and we were tired. Well, the kids were asleep long since and Bonnie drove some of the way for me to nap too. It was a long day, but filled with baseball!
