Butterfly Biosphere (Thanksgiving Point)

 We visited the butterfly biosphere at Thanksgiving Point last week. Diana liked it so much that she asked if we could go back every five minutes the entire time we walked through the nearby Tulip Festival. We ended up returning to the butterfly biosphere for round two after the tulips.

Diana showed no fear of the butterflies. She marched around sticking her finger out to get those little things to hold on. And she succeeded quite a few times!
Douglas enjoyed the butterflies as well.



Penny thought she liked butterflies . . . 
. . . until the creature flew from her finger onto her shirt. She frantically pulled down on her shirt in an attempted to put some distance between the butterfly and her face.
Smile for the camera!
"Okay, that's enough."
"It's starting to move up!"
"Get it off right now!!"
Meanwhile, Diana calmly released her little friend.
Sam succeeded in getting one of the large, blue butterflies to take a ride on her finger, which is very hard to do.


Diana liked the mist.

Penny liked this butterfly. It stayed on her finger.
While admiring Penny's butterfly, another butterfly landed on Diana's head.


Then it flew over to Douglas's shoulder.

Sam shared her blue butterfly with Douglas.
And Douglas put it on my hat.




Had we allowed it, this girl would have spent the entire day with the butterflies.
