Day 3: Kentucky, Tennessee Today is Ark Encounter day! We stayed at a hotel about 3 minutes from the Ark, and once we got packed up, we drove over to the ark again. From the parking lot, we took a shuttle to the actual location of the Ark. It was a huge awe-inspiring masterpiece. It was far bigger than what you would think is possible for a wooden structure, and the inside was incredible! The exhibits for the Creation Museum and the Ark were designed by Patrick Marsh, the same person who designed universal studios and other theme parks. The auditorium next to the Ark was called the Answers Center. They had lots of things going on throughout the day. These included "The Building of the Ark", Archeological evidence for the bible, Animal encounters, and a live speaker. The Ark also had a couple short films playing throughout the day as well. -The Nystroms

Creation vs Evolution, The Seven C's of History (Creation, Corruption, Catastrophe, Confusion, Christ, Cross, Consummation), the first and last Adam, dinosaurs, life, and much more. The art and designs of the entire museum were amazing!  We saw the film "The Last Adam", a 4-D film called "In Six Days", and listened to a presentation about dinosaurs in the bible by Bryan Osborne (author of Quick Answers to Tough Questions).
