Stay CALM and Escape

Thursday in Bakersfield was hot! Despite the heat, we went to check out the California Living Museum (CALM). It has native plants and native non-releasable animals  (due to injury or threat). Unlike a large zoo, we had great access to the exhibits either through proximity or select view areas. We saw some very cool animals such as the CA condor with its huge wing span and the desert tortoise. The poor bears looked very hot. The kids were fascinated by a pelican almost turning its throat inside out and a scrub jay nipped John through the wire cage!

After cooling down and grabbing lunch at Temblor Brewing Company, we decided to enter the world of escape rooms. We were successful escapees from the Crimson Storm room in which we needed to find the treasure from a sinking pirate ship that we were imprisoned on. Great fun!
