Vacation Day Ten

Today we went to the 'planetarium'. It wasn't really much of a planetarium but we did watch a great 3D Imax movie about prehistoric sea monsters. We all really enjoyed that. Since the planetarium was a little disappointing we decided to go to the aviary. It wasn't very big but it was feeding time so we got to see some of the birds eating.

This is a golden eagle eating some other kind of bird:


This one is some kind of vulture feasting on a rat:


I saw a mama partridge with a bunch of little tiny babies following her. They were so cute!

There was a park next to the aviary so Kirsten and Abigial decided to ride on the ferris wheel. Kirsten didn't look too crazy about it once she was on there.


There was a lot of road construction is Salt Lake City and it took us at least 30 minutes to even get to a spot where we could get onto the highway. We're in Fruita, CO, tonight. We'll be going horseback riding tomorrow for 3 hours (I'm sure our butts will regret that.)
