No bones about it - learning about dinosaurs is fun! Join us as we visit three different sites and find out about animals that lived in the USA millions of years before man appeared here. At Mammoth Site in Hot Springs, South Dakota, we discover that wooly mammoths and other animals became entrapped and died in a pond 26,000 years ago in the Pleistocene Era.

No bones about it - learning about dinosaurs is fun! Join us as we visit three different sites and find out about animals that lived in the USA millions of years before man appeared here. At Mammoth Site in Hot Springs, South Dakota, we discover that wooly mammoths and other animals became entrapped and died in a pond 26,000 years ago in the Pleistocene Era. They lay buried until 1974 when earth-moving equipment exposed the fossils. Today this research center and active dig attracts visitors daily and has the largest mammoth exhibit in the world. Next we move to Nebraska to visit the Agate Fossil Beds National Monument. Originally a working cattle ranch until fossils were found there in the early 20th century, it was authorized as a national monument in 1965 but didn't become a part of the National Park Service until 1997. This site is in a grassy valley of the Niobrara River, and the fossils date from 20 million years ago in the Miocene Era. Visitors can hike the trail that winds along the University Hill and Carnegie Hill where the fossils were found and are now on display. Our search along the Dinosaur Trail ends at the Wyoming Dinosaur Center where there are skeletons of more than 20 dinosaurs on display. We witness a dig with a staff paleontologist and learn the process of preparing a fossil for display. We even get to see a skeleton of T Rex, the king of the dinosaurs!

A visit to America's capital can be enjoyed by one and all. The major public attractions are very family friendly and most are free. Start your visit at the Washington Information Center, where you can learn about the various sights and places to eat. Highlights of your visit should include a tour of the White House, the Jefferson Memorial, the Lincoln Memorial, the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, and Arlington Cemetery to pay respects to American war heroes and to see the Eternal Flame at President Kennedy's grave. Another must-see is the Smithsonian Institution, which is actually a complex of museums that reflect the history and culture of America. Other attractions to see are the Capitol Museum and the National Zoo. Also plan to visit Georgetown, one of the oldest neighborhoods in DC, where you can enjoy ethnic food and the local specialty, Chesapeake Bay crab.

This large metropolis is one of America's most unique and exciting cities. A melting pot for many races and cultures, New Orleans is a remarkable collection of distinct and separate neighborhoods. You can feel the rhythm of the city as we take a horse and carriage ride through its most famous neighborhood, the French Quarter, where we see Bourbon Street; Preservation Hall, where Jazz began; the building where the Louisiana Purchase was signed, and Royal Street, with its famous balconies and railings; plus we visit the Garden District, and its ante-bellum homes, the French Market, Cafe Du Monde, and, of course, no trip to New Orleans would be complete without sampling some Creole and Cajun cuisine.
