Spiders Alive



The Royal Botanical Gardens had an exhibit on ... Spiders Alive!  Not something I would particularly go to myself, but we thought the kids would like it.  They did!  The exhibit wasn't as creepy as I though it would be.  The spiders were all behind glass and (as far as I know) couldn't escape from their enclosures.  


We saw Black Widows and a lot of others too.


They also had the BIGGEST  spider in the world ... the Bird Eater Spider.  Yes it does eat birds and their eggs.  It is a type of tarantula, all big and furry.  


Yuck!


They had floor games for the kids as well.  Above, Alanna is trying to jump as far as a spider. 


The kids each picked out something from the gift shop.  Above you can see what Emerson chose.  Lots of snakes makes him happy.
