Apr 01, 2012 - When I woke up this morning, my parents told me that they were going to take me to the Dallas Museum of Nature and Science to meet Buddy the T-Rex from the Dinosaur Train TV show on KERA. I thought since it was April !st, they were playing a trick on me, but fortunately they were not. Buddy was going to make a special appearance at the museum and we could get to take a picture with him. We drove down to the museum and as soon as we got in, they told us that Buddy was making an appearance at the Children's Museum section. We ran down quickly and stood in line (which was really long). We waited patiently for our turn and finally got to meet him in person. I was very excited to see Buddy there. I took my picture quickly so that the other kids could get their turn too. The people at the museum were really nice to organize this for us.

We spent the rest of the morning doing other activities arranged by the museum including a Dino dig, a scavenger hunt and also did some work from a nature's guide book. Soon it was lunch time and we went to lunch at a temple close by which had a vegetarian restaurant. It was called Kalachandji's. I loved their Tamarind water cooler and also their Mango halwa.

What a great way to start April.
