The second leg of our vacation took us to Drumheller where we were able to go to the Royal Tyrel Museum to see all the dinosaur bones. Also at the museum we took a hike to learn about the 7 wonders of the bad lands! Emily really got into it and was always interested in what the guide had to say! We actually learned quite a bit about the area. We also went inside the biggest dinosaur in the world! The second day we were there, we took the girls to see the hoodoos. That was fun! Emily and Beth had a great time climbing around! Emily even remembered how hoodoos were made (from what the guide told us)! But it was really hot and we could only stand to be out there so long! Finally we stopped at a suspension bridge that crossed a river (I can't remember which one it is). The "floor" of the bridge was like a grate and we could see the river below as we crossed the bridge. It was kind of intimidating! But it was pretty neat. I don't think my mom would have been able to do it though. The bridge swayed pretty good and just the fact that you could see the river under your feet was a bit scary! Sorry Mom! Anyway, Drumheller was really fun for the girls! I think the museum was the best for them though.
