Staycation Day 2 wasn't nearly as warm (still in the 80's though), so we decided to hit up the Parkville conservatory nature trail in the morning. We hadn't been there before, but a neighbor told us how great it was, so we wanted to check it out.
There are a few different trails you can take, but we chose the 0.9 mile loop and it was perfect for our little hikers.
All ready to go!
A picture with the really awesome spider web in the background. The sun hit it just perfectly and even though you can't really tell in the picture, it's a huge spider web.
Taking a little break! There was this beautiful little waterfall that you hit about halfway through the loop.
We, of course, climbed to the top and slid around in the mud on the way down.
We didn't see much in terms of wildlife, although we did see 2 deer that were super close to us.
They had lots of neat bridges that we got to cross, plus a separate area with benches for a lookout point.
The kids had so much fun, and were really worn out afterwards.
We headed home and ate some lunch/took naps.
We got up in the afternoon and made our way to our next stop...
The Tiffany Springs Aquatic Park.
Colin deemed this "the best day EVER...in the world"
Sounds good to me!
We took some snacks to munch on while we were there, and went out to dinner that night at a fun little pizza shop down the street.
Came home, changed into pajamas, and watched a little 'Sandlot' movie while snacking on popcorn!
Perfect day spent with the family.
