If you go to the Mission, make sure you save your appetite for fry bread! And pick the fattest vendor! They know their stuff...

Hey I've already told my husband your little tidbit of info on that one (based on something you wrote here a while back)! I plan on it

We've been here just about a month and a half and we all the sudden have passes/memberships to 4 places now (Pima Air & Space, Zoo, Saguaro Parks, and Childrens museum). We didn't have that in our place in Indy or in Michigan.

If you like going there, why not. Had I lived in Orlando, I'd hang out in Epcot every weekend. The "countries" may be fake, but it's better than nothing.

The Air & Space Museum's pretty cool... well, the "air" part of it is. I wasn't too impressed by the space stuff, but I've been spoiled by the Air & Space Museum at the Smithsonian. But all the old planes were neat.

We're hoping to get back there in a couple years to take the kids. (2,5 and 7) My husband and I had quite a 'different' honeymoon. Instead of going to the Bahamas, Caribbean, Hawaii or someplace warm (in October 1998) I wanted to go to Gettysburg and then go to DC for the rest. I LOVE all the historical monuments, places to go and especially the Smithsonian museums.

I loved it so much that my mother in law (a 6th grade teacher who took her kids there every year) let me be a chaparone in 99 so I could go again! Ha!

While we're on the subject of Tucson attractions, 'Transformers 2' will have some scenes shot in Tucson at the Boneyard! Should be pretty neat to see our town.. err.. boneyard.. on the big screen!

How lovely... I think I'll pass. Don't feel bad, Michael. I pass on any movie of this nature.

Oh I won't feel bad. What I'm not looking forward to is the ten bucks for a ticket at the theater!
