Family Day

First stop:  A.C. Gilbert Discovery Village!
This place is awesome!  Like a great mix of the Children's Museum and a history lesson.  We can't wait to return this summer and take advantage of the enormous outdoor area too!  (At 38 degrees, it was a big too chilly to climb and play outside today.)








Second stop:  Salem Carousel!
Another historical gem, and lots of fun at a mere $1.50 a ride!


Third (and unexpected) stop:  Salem Hospital
We got a text while we were in town, that my grandfather was admitted for heart problems.  We were only minutes away, so we stopped in to visit Great- Grand Papa.  We are hoping he is feeling better soon!!!


Fourth stop:  Los Baez Mexican Restaurant
This little hole in the wall would have never jumped out and made me think to stop, but a friend swore by their homemade, authentic, Mexican food, so we had to give it a try, and it did not disappoint!  We were stuffed full of yummy food by the time we left!


Final stop:  Movie afternoon at home!
After a food and highway travel-induced nap (for Aubrey and I, anyway), we got home and snuggled up on the couch to watch "The Smurfs."  Ahhhhhhh.  I love Winter Break!  :)
