The Johnsons: Experience the Titanic!

We had a really fun weekend! On Saturday it was around 48 degrees, which meant Carter could go outside and play and Daddy could get some work done in the garage. It was really nice to be outside, hear the birds chirping, and see parts of our lawn again. On Sunday we went to the Milwaukee Public Museum to see the Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition with Jake and Chelsea. Here is the website about it http://www.mpm.edu/titanic/ it was REALLY neat. I found it amazing to look at these artifacts that had been on this ship, under the water for so many years, and now beautifully preserved. We saw stuff like passanger's luggage, dishes, money (yes, paper money too), shoes, tools, and even a bottle of champagne that still had champagne in it. When you enter the exhibit, they give you a Titanic boarding pass with information about a real passenger that was on board. After the exhibit you can go to a list and see if they survived or were lost. We were not allowed to take pictures in that exhibit, so I only have a couple photos below. The rest of the museum was very cool too. We made it through the dinosaur section and the rainforest section. They also had a separate butterfly exhibit with real butterflies. This was by far Carter's favorite part. He LOVED watching the butterflies all over the place. We had so much fun and can't wait to explore another place with Jake and Chelsea! Hope you enjoy the pics!
