An Uplifting Culture Experience?

We took our kids to the Challenger Space Musuem a few weeks ago. It didn't quite go how I envisioned it. First I thought the museum was in Mesa, which is about 25 min. from where we live, but no it was in Peoria. Peoria is a little over an hour away from our home. Once I figured this out I didn't really want to go, but I had already told Jaxon and he had his heart set on it. So, we went. Once we got there, an hour later, the kids were all a little sleepy. Kenli and Drey actually fell asleep, so when we woke them up Kenli was grumpy and all Drey wanted to do was play. This was not to our advantage once we got inside the musuem. It was FREE museum day so the place was packed. Drey couldn't get down and walk so he was getting upset. Kenli was still honory and now hungry too. Jaxon was excited at first, but I that wore off soon. It was so hard for him, or us, to really enjoy anything because there were so many people. We did see a few cool things, but all in all I think this museum visit was a bust.
