Dinofest Pictures

One of the things I like to do in crowds, is to watch how people behave.  You see the most interesting adult behavior at places like Chuckie Cheese and at lunch time at overcrowded events.  There is nothing better than seeing a bunch of parents get pissed off over not being able to find a table or a place to eat.  I must have watched that happen two or three times within a few minutes.  I guess they were surprised that a lot of people would attend the event and that their kids may actually be hungry (and a bit crabby) at 12:30 in the afternoon.

Look at all of the humanity.

 If you look closely, several adults are scouting the area for a place to eat (unsuccessfully, of course).

Ok, enough about my social commentary.  Parker has liked dinosaurs for most of his life.  In fact, he can pronounce the scientific names of most of the dinosaurs at the show.   We have watched literally hundreds of hours of video tape on dinosaurs and I have read several books to Parker.

Here are a bunch of pictures I though you would enjoy.  I have left off the scientific names since I don't want to invest the time to look up everything. 

A nice picture of everyone getting ready ! (There was also a large stained glass exhibit at Navy Pier as well)

What a big mouth !

Parker and Andrew !

Parker was the star for the day !
