All kids love dinosaurs, right?  We all loved dinosaurs when we were kids, and our kids all love dinosaurs now.

Honestly, some adults are as fascinated with dinosaurs now as they were when they were kids.

It makes sense, right?  They are so big and so mysterious.  We’re talking about lizards the size of a house that we only know about because of the bones archeologists have been able to dig up.  Yes, we know there were some very small dinosaurs, but the most interesting ones are the huge dinos.

How cool would it be to come face to face with life-sized dinosaurs?

Now you can, thanks to an epic experience coming to Maine this August.

As we understand it, there is even an exhibit that shows us what the oceans were like back in the time of the dinosaurs.
