Outing Day

Today was a special father/son day.

My boy wants to go fishing (on a real boat), but before we make arrangements for that, my dad suggested the "Outdoors Adventure Center" by the DNR in Detroit Michigan. It gives visitors a taste of the great outdoors, right in the middle of the city of Detroit.

The three of us, myself, my dad and my son, all visited the exhibit, and we learned all about the outdoor experience. Of course, we prefer the real thing over an indoor museum, but it was a fun outing none-the-less.

Especially the indoor waterfalls!

The building used to be a factory manufacturing large boilers for steamships. Now it's a giant "outdoors" exhibit!

There are large salt mines under Detroit, we got to feel a huge chunk of rock salt!

Feeling beaver fur. Very soft!

Pretend flying an air plane! (It doesn't move)

We were found hanging out in a giant eagle's nest.
