The boys had scones again this morning and then we went to the aquarium in Idaho Falls. It is a tiny aquarium but interactive and the boys enjoyed it. They let shrimp and doctor fish eat the dead skin off of their fingers. We also touched stingrays and pet a porcupine. I think the porcupine was their favorite. Seth wants a porcupine, figured out where to keep it at home and what to name it.
After the aquarium we stopped at the grocery store and then went back to the rental house for lunch, do school work and waited for Matt to get off of work.
We drove about 40 minutes out near Ririe to Stinking Springs to mountain bike. It was about a 5 mile loop, had an 800 foot elevation climb and nice views. We took several stops to drink water and so I could catch my breath. It was my first time mountain biking and I was working and figuring out how to ride. One time when we stopped, Seth said, "SNAKE!" His voice was actually excited this time because the rattlesnake actually slithered under Matt's left foot and then under his bike and then his right foot. Sort of made me not want to have any more rest stops. The ride down was fun and fast. I think Liam enjoyed the ride the most.
On the way back we stopped at Heise Pizza Parlor in Ririe and the boys had pizza, again. I had a salad with huckleberry vinaigrette dressing. Closest I'll probably come to eating huckleberries this year.
We drove back to the rental house, took showers and went to bed.
