Dino's, Dino's & MORE DINO'S!!!
When this exhibition showed up on an online ad, I knew it could be a ton of fun!
Part of me thought that it will likely not live up to the cost or the hype. These things can be a hit and miss when it comes to quality of show.
Boy was I wrong!
The fam headed out on Sunday to check the Jurassic Quest show out and it did not disappoint.
One auditorium was filled with dinosaurs along with live shows, the other auditorium was filled with bouncy castles and interactive games to play.
Check it out!

Now that was a cool exhibit, but let's head back to the beginning - where all the fun starts!
Welcome To Jurassic Quest
Furry Dinosaurs ???
While I am no expert in prehistoric creatures, we did receive our fair share of dinosaur culture growing up. Is it just me or did the idea of furry dinosaurs just creep up in the last couple of decades?
When walking upon these furry giants, I was dumbfounded at their appearance!
Or maybe just dumb?
Again, I am no expert here. In fact, I can only name a handful of these beauties, but this post is all about the photos anyway.
Never the less, check out how cool these ones look!
Big Big Bird
Jurassic Quest did an excellent job with the presentation of the dinosaurs, their habitats & life like motions.
What does not do the experience justice is only having still photos.
Most of these ancient replicas moved, roared and squealed which added to the awesome ambience.
The huge bird would open its beak and dip its head down from above your head..
Godzilla Killer
This monster green Godzilla eating carnivore is in your face the moment you walk in, setting the tone for the visit.
Its tail spanned across the entire walkway!
Stegowho?
This is just a Stegosaurus. It is nothing special. The main reason for posting this photo is because it is one of the only dinosaurs that I can identify.
I guess I am an expert!
More gargantuan looking monsters...
Water Dinosaurs
If you ask me, these ones are far more disturbing than the land crawlers.
Just when you thought the exhibits were finished, you walk around the corner to witness these mutants ready to eat you.
Even with all their nastiness, these ones ended up being my favourite of the bunch.
Family Fun!
Surprisingly, our 4 year old daughter wasn't the least bit scared walking through here. She could barely control herself as the excitement was built up for this, beginning weeks prior.
Being the HUGE dinosaur fan that she is, she was ready for playtime too!
In Closing
If by chance you see this traveling Dino party pass through your town, I would give it 2 thumbs up on value for the money.
Quite often, you walk through these things and after 30 minutes there is nothing left to do.
Jurassic Quest kept us busy for 3 hours, then we were able to grab some grub from the food trucks outside.
A great time had by all!
