Thank you to my wife and to Children's University Adelaide for a magical Sunday

Yesterday was family day... Both my wife and I had the weekend off and as an added bonus I had the Monday off as well. My amazing wife was working the Monday Public Holiday (Queen's Birthday) but she decided to organise an epic family day out anyway... We could not have asked for a nicer day... Perfect blue skies and sweet sunshine... My son has signed up for Children's University, a thing run by Adelaide University where kids are rewarded for undertaking educational outside of school hours activities and at the end of the year if they record enough hours they are awarded an official document (degree, certificate etc.) with a full blown graduation ceremony (cap, gown and everything)... Very excited...

So anyway, on this brilliant Sunday we (#TeamLaw5) headed to Port Adelaide and the Aviation Museum hoping that Master 12 would answer all the questions and get a stamp in his learning passport. I loved the museum, all the old planes, drones and helicopters, the displays were all very interesting and yes 'we' did finish off the worksheet and (eventually) got all the questions correct!! One and a half hours in the passport and one very proud mum and dad...

After a quick lunch at the golden arches (luckily we had vouchers for free burgers, thanks again to my amazing wife) it was decided that we were so close to the Rail Museum and it was still so early in the afternoon that we should visit this too... Master 12 was reluctant to tackle another worksheet so Miss 10 (almost 11) undertook this one... The Rail Museum was so much more interactive with touch screens and displays that light up and even a little steam train that we took a ride on (5 crammed into a tiny carriage was indeed an experience)... With 20 minutes to go before we hit the road bound for home Master 12 decided he did want to finish the worksheet and so a whirlwind of discovery later he now has his train stamp in the passport too... Another one and a half hours toward the end of year tally... Woohoo!!!

A truly wonderful day of family filled fun... Thank you to my wife and to Children's University Adelaide for a magical Sunday...

Aviation Museum - 8.5/10 (great price for family of five, massive planes, friendly service)

Rail Museum - 7/10 (even with discount from visiting Aviation it still seemed expensive, great displays and lots to do, service a bit unusual)
