Dragons and Dinosaurs

Last weekend we went on a couple of fun excursions that involve two of Nicholas' favourite things at the moment: dragons and dinosaurs. Unfortunately I forgot my camera on both occasions but luckily Pete managed to take a few shots with his phone at the dinosaurs.

Inspired by The Jackson Files we went to watch How to tame your dragon in 3D at the cinema. Nicholas enjoyed the actual movie as well as the ambience with the popcorn, the glasses and the hugest screen ever. We haven't been to movies in so long we loved it all too. Even Daniel had his eyes glued to the big screen. We're already looking forward to our next trip to the cinema!

I heard some kids on the bus raving about Dinosaurs Unleashed, a dinosaur exhibition on Oxford Street, so off we went. We were lucky to catch the last day before they ripped the whole thing down to build another building. It was pretty awesome even for us adults so I can only imagine what went through the youngters' minds as they wandered around between the life size and life-like animatronics. Nicholas hasn't stopped talking about it ever since and even Daniel has started roaring now!
