Oh road trips... how I love thee. The Creation Museum was pretty cool. It's actually located in Kentucky, not Ohio like I thought. We stayed in a hotel near the Cincinnati airport [which is actually in Kentucky] which was pretty close to the museum. We bought a family pass to the museum good for the next year, so we went and spent all day there yesterday and we went back today as well for a little bit. [Plan is to possibly go back in spring? Hm? Ok!] I think my favorite part was the Stargazers room. It was similar to a planetarium but it was a digital presentation on the solar system projected onto a domed ceiling. It was so incredible, it showed how huge and vast and amazing and uncomprehendible <-[is that even a word?] our galaxy and universe truly is. It makes me feel like a tiny helpless fly. We're a small little planet in a gigantic sea of God's glory. It's a cool place. The best part is the way it's a whole museum about creation and it all points to God. Because it's from a Biblical perspective; you won't be reading about evolution or millions of years there.
Hooray for nice hotels!
Dad thought this would make a cool picture I guess...
Sittin' in the hot tub.
The museum had lots of dinosaurs.
The museum was filled with scripture. One room, we walked into they had a video of people quoting verses from the Bible about God and His glory. It was so cool, just hearing the scripture being read as you looked at the apostles and read about what they accomplished for God's kingdom.
The tropic-like gardens and petting zoo outside were fun times.
On a different note: our family is shrinking. Oh sad. This was our little family vacation for the year. Notice how we are missing three members [or 5, counting spouses] and I am the oldest child of the four. Eh, I guess it's something everyone faces: growing up.
[our] family vacay.
ReplyDeleteI want to go to there!
But isn't it so much easier traveling with only 6 people rather than with 9??
That looks like so much fun!
ReplyDeleteI miss you so much and can't wait to see you guys again!
