Mormon Battalion

We visited the new Mormon Battalion site in "Old Town" San Diego.

I have no idea what the old Mormon Battalion site was like, but the new one was super fun.

There's a short interactive tour -educational and fun for the kids!

(And not just fun because they were all handed FIRE ARMS.)

After the tour, you go outside into a courtyard and there are lots of hands-on activities.

Panning for "gold" was a big hit.

In fact, we might still be there, searching for loot, if I hadn't said, "ENOUGH ALREADY!"

They gave us this picture at the end.

We look so authentic!

We did learn that Stick's grandpa - a few generations back, was a member of the Mormon Battalion.

We're practically famous!

That looks so neat.

On a side note Miss Reb's hair looks like Shirely Temple. I'm guessing the beach wind did wonders for her hair.
