Afternoon at the Shenandoah Valley Discovery Museum

 It has been a rainy mess here for days and days.  We really felt like we had been cooped up in the house for way too long, so Saturday we took a trip to the Shenandoah Valley Discovery Museum.  We had been once before but Winona was still crawling so it wasn't nearly as much fun.  This time she was able to roam freely and play til her heart content.
They have many different rooms.  One room is set up with a ton of roller coaster attachments and a couple hundred balls.  She really loved this room because she really loves balls.  (hehe)
There is another room with a Native American yurt-like structure made of tree bark.  Inside the yurt it is set up so that you can play and pretend you are an Indian!!!  There is a little fire and beds with animal skins.
My favorite room is the hospital room with hospital beds and xrays and xray illuminator.  I love to hold the x-rays up and try to diagnose the broken bones.




Obviously we were really into the mirrors.  Winona thought it was so cool that there were so many "Mamas" and "Papas".


Overall, we had a great time.  It was well worth it for the two hours that she ran around and got some energy out.  We will surely be going back.
