City of Water Day, Part 2: Governors Island

After the Circle Line dropped us off on Governors Island, we had a quick picnic lunch (and an awesome guava smoothie) and then checked out the activities. Mikro enjoyed all of the nature oriented exhibits and hands on displays featuring aquatic life. He had a blast playing wetlands jeopardy. He also had fun making a wetlands puppet (a spider crab) and petting a male bearded dragon named Bruce who was bigger than his female beardie, Amicus. Kev and Mikro toured the Canal Boat Urger, which I admired from the pier. We also learned about the steel clad civil war ship, the Monitor.



















































What a fun day! And it wasn't over yet.
