Mormon Battalion Visitors Center

Our spring break was less that exciting this year. With my sprained ankle, our options were limited. So on the last Friday of spring break, I convinced Rick and the kids to take a quick trip to San Diego to tour the new Mormon Battalion visitors center. Rick wasn't too keen on going since he was remembering the old visitors center that was a bit boring - but he ended up being glad we went.

There were quite a lot of people visiting, so instead of starting with the new and improved movie, we headed to a room where we had our family picture taken, played games, and learned about different individuals that were in the battalion.

After dragging the kids away from the games, we headed outside where Parker couldn't wait to pan for gold. Erin and Bryant said they didn't want to participate, but they sure were interested in what Parker was doing.

After panning for gold, we went back inside and took the movie tour which was really cool. Then we went back outside to pan for gold some more. After we'd found enough fools gold, we took a few pictures in front of the visitors center and then headed for home - by way of Fuddruckers, YUM!
