Pima Air and Space Museum


Nothing excites Caleb like trains, planes and rescue vehicles! So it is no surprise that, during Gram and Papa's stay, we visited the Pima Air and Space Museum. It's one of the largest air and space museums in the world with 300 planes, 80 acres, 5 hangers and more!  In the first hanger, Caleb climbed inside a cockpit and turned on runway lights in the control tower. He couldn't get enough! The hands-on area is definitely where it's at for children! We were just able to scratch the surface, visiting one hanger and touring the outside aircraft by tram. A return visit is definitely in our future.
