Newport Aquarium, Cincinnati

The rest of our day was then spent at the Newport Aquarium. The aquarium was nice but nothing amazing.  The kids enjoyed the parts where you could feel the animals and crossing the shark bridge.  





















Creation Museum

So I really thought the Ark Encounter was going to be the best, but I was wrong.  I and a few others actually enjoyed the Creation Museum more.  It had so much history and images to make the entire Bible come to life.  Kallen who loves dinosaurs really enjoyed it as dinosaurs were a key figure in lots of the museums as they were on earth during the time of Adam, Eve, and even Noah, just fascinating! Even historical artifacts and bible translations were present, amazing!

Ark Encounter

Today was the main reason for the trip; the majority of us have had it on our bucket list and we officially checked it off today.  We headed north to the Ark Encounter in Williamstown, Kentucky.  The size, history, and magnitude were unbelievable.  So remarkable about all its history and information to prove the existence of the ark, dinosaurs, and nationalities.  Loved it all!

Ijams Nature Center in Knoxville, TN

Today was a slower-paced day in Knoxville thanks to everything being closed on Mondays.  Therefore, we spent our morning hiking and exploring the Ijams Nature Center.  Following our hike, we headed to Knoxville's largest mall for some air conditioning shopping.
