We did a family field trip on Sunday and met my Mom at Dinosaur Land. Located in the Shanendoah Valley, about an hour away from both of us is Dinosaur Land. I had fun, Mike thought it was a little cheesy. I concur with the cheesy assessment, but it was still fun.
Envision a guy, probably in the 1960's, who discovered fiberglass, and crafted something large. He probably then moved onto dinosaurs. He made one - and all of his guy friends thought it was cool, so he made a second one. His wife got mad after two, and laid down the law. He had to turn it into some sort of money making venture - or no more dinosaurs. He actually did it, and at the end of the walking tour, you actually end up in someone's backyard.
I thought it was cool, and perhaps a little funny. They also had a giant shark, octopus, praying mantis, and king kong.
The entry fee is fairly cheap - I think it was $19 for 3 adults and 2 kids, so, my assessment would be a good field trip. A good field trip for a one hour drive - maybe anything over two hours, you might be disappointed.
And yes, Connor did ask us to speak to the dinosaurs to make sure they did not eat him.
