It seems our events this past week brought out the kid in all of us. Our first stop was in Topeka, KS at their state of the art Discovery Center. The almost brand new facility has both indoor and outdoor hands on learning around every corner.
Next we headed to Kansas City, MI where much to our delight our boss Laura aka “Tater Mom” flew in for a few days from Idaho. We joined forces with Meals on Wheels and Platte Valley Bank to provide an afternoon of fun in the sun with a picnic, games and live music at the Platte Senior Center.
We finished the week parked outside the massive Union Station. The potato truck did it’s job drawing in quite the crowd to get their picture next to it. The folks at Union Station we’re great hosts. We got to tour the pirate exhibit which was unbelievably cool and definitely a must see if your in the area. Then we spent a few hours in the Science Center where it’s impossible not to have childlike curiosity as you explore with all your senses.
While writing this post I was reminded of a quote “There are no seven wonders of the world in the eyes of a child. There are seven million.” Hopefully we can continue to keep that perspective through the rest of our travels.
