Christmas Adventure Date Weekend #2

Stop #1: Dickens of a Christmas! at the Ohio Village

We learned about the history of Christmas trees (I knew all the trivia answers), made some 19th century style ornaments, made a string of popcorn and cranberry garland, tried some old fashioned spiced cider, and coloured some 19th century Christmas cards.

Stop #2: Columbus Zoo and Aquarium Wildlights!

Stop #3: Armstrong Air & Space Museum Holiday Lights

On our way home we swung through Wapakoneta and saw the mini light display they had set up. It was super cold and began to sleet (it made the photos look cool) so we, literally, ran through it.

Wapak Summer Moon Festival 2019

Today is the 50th anniversary of the moon landing. Neil Armstrong was from Wapakoneta so every year they celebrate his achievement. Wapak does the Moon Festival every year but this year it was even bigger due to it being the 50th anniversary.

Over 50,000 people came (5x more than the population of Wapak)!

We went to the Moon Market, ate some yummy food, and watched the wiener dog races downtown.

We visited also visited the Armstrong Air & Space Museum.
