When we set out this morning, our plan was to visit the
Museum of Natural Sciences in the morning and the
children's museum in the afternoon. However, once we were inside the amazingly large and highly impressive science museum, we couldn't pull ourselves away, except for a quick, but super delicious, lunch at
The Raleigh Times Bar. All I can say is, "Wow!" This was one of the best museums we've ever been to, and the free admission sort of pushed the experience over the edge. If you ever find yourself in Raleigh with a day to kill (whether you have kids or not), this museum is a must! We left just shy of closing time but still had enough daylight left for a tour of a local
chocolate factory, a brief visit to Duke's campus and a wonderful dinner in Chapel Hill at a lovely little
Italian place. What an incredibly fun day!
