We did get out of the car once at the Tiger Statue. Mikayla wanted to see the water and the rest of us just wanted to explore. We did not last long out of the car because it was C-C-C-COLD! It was very beautiful though which made it worth the chill. I was very amused because Ken and Declan were wandering around and had stopped to look at the water and the view. There were not many people out at the statues but within a minute the few who were there surrounded Ken to get a look at Declan. Declan is our little star and has fans everywhere he goes. People love to try and hold his hand or pet his hair. He loves to stick his tongue out at them or try to give high fives. Little monkey!

Declan's fans:
After checking out the statues we drove the rest of the road. Mikayla crashed out but Declan still enjoyed the ride. He loves to point out the things he knows the names of. So far he points out cars, trucks, buses, trees, and water. Pretty soon he will be chatting our ears off like his sister!
Near the end of the road was the Dalian Museum of Natural History so we decided to stop there as well. Declan LOVED this place. He was so excited and in awe of just about everything. Mikayla enjoyed it as well and really seemed to be facinated by the fish they had displayed. I don't know if the museum is free every day or if we just got lucky but we were not charged to go in. Our driver was with us and spoke to the people at the desk but when he told us what they said he said it in Chinese so I am still clueless. I really need to start taking my chinese lessons!!! I found it crazy that while we were touring the museum they had areas that they were working on not blocked off. There was a guy who had sparks flying from his tools right above where we were looking at an elephant display. Declan and Mikayla found it very cool and were excited by it. =P
