whatcom children's museum

another rainy afternoon today (seriously, didn't god make a promise to noah!?!), and we skipped our outdoor adventure for an indoor one. we went to the whatcom children's museum to see the new exhibit "by the bay: working on the waterfront." right up our alley! (or aaron's, anyway.)

the exhibit was neat--sailboats, fish boats, a cannery, a submarine, a greasy seafood restaurant... but we arrived during the tail end of a birthday party and the museum was utter chaos. noah seemed a bit overwhelmed by the masses of yelping kids!
