A few weekends ago, the company I work for had a very lovely Family Day for their employees and loved ones, which included a lunch and tickets to four museums of our choice at Balboa Park. I brought my boys with me, and we started the day very early to ensure we could take in as much as we could before Dominic needed a nap. Our day started off at the San Diego Air & Space Museum with a breakfast snack and a tour of the museum before a fabulous lunch (which also included a complimentary space picture, seen above). There was a special exhibition by Ripley’s Believe or Not before we made our way through the rest of the museum. We then headed to the San Diego Automotive Museum and ended our day at The Ruben H. Fleet Science Center, where my mom and dad used to take me and my sister nearly every month when we were kids. My husband and I both brought our cameras, so it took me a bit of time to go through all of the pictures we had for this post. We had such a wonderful time, and I would like to thank my company for a fantastic soiree. Hope you had a great weekend!

Just a sampling of the fantastic food at the breakfast and luncheon.
The Ripley’s Believe It Or Not Exhibition. Can you believe those are Jelly Belly jelly beans?!
Very “True Blood”, no?
Impressive to be so close to a piece of history: The Berlin Wall.
Of course, Dominic finds Angry Birds!
The tallest man in the world. We are not even close!
The Air & Space Museum displays. Did you know Duran Duran’s first choice of band name was RAF, which stood for the Royal Air Force?
Check out Dominic with Snoopy and his Sopwith Camel, saving the day against the Red Baron!
When he saw the face painter, Dominic had to get his staple, Spiderman! Then he did what any superhero would do: Jumped on the moon and flew a plane. All in a day’s work!
At The San Diego Automotive Museum. Dominic’s version of what he would fill his garage with.
*sigh* My dream Vespa…
Have DeLorean, will travel…back to the future!
I think the description says it all. Check out the hooka in the front of the car!
The Ruben H. Fleet Science Center. We definitely took in more activities than pictures! The ones included are from my iPhone, except for Dominic in the fire truck at Kid City.
