![]() A huge humpback whale skeleton hanging from the ceiling is a good conversation starter too! Our kids are bit too a young to fully appreciate all the exhibits here but there are interactive learning opportunities for all ages and the center offers a variety of programs year-round. The indoor touch tank even allows them to hold sea stars and hermit crabs (as well as catsharks and skates if they’re brave enough). The kids always love to see the wide variety of fish, crustaceans and anemones living in the aquariums here. Suggested loop: Here is a suggested loop that is approximately 2.5 miles along the northern end of the park:īefore exploring the miles of walking trails along the coastline start your family outing with a quick visit to the Seacoast Science Center. Trail Maps: Odiorne Point State Park Trails Map (pdf) | Seacoast Sceience Center’s Map for Odiorne Point State Park (pdf) Admission to the Seacoast Science Center is $10 (Ages 13-Adult), $8 (Seniors & Military), $5 (Ages 3-12) and FREE for members and kids under age 3. The Park opens for the season full-time on May 28. There are parking spaces designated for the Seacoast Science Center behind the building (bear left when you enter) or you can park in the large main lot.įees: The State Park is open (weekends only) beginning May 7th and admission is $4 for adults $2 for children ages 6-11 children ages 5 and under and NH residents age 65 and over are admitted free. Parking: Use the main lot off of Rt 1A/Ocean Boulevard in Rye, NH. Finish the day with a trip into nearby Portsmouth for a tasty treat that both mom and the kids will love! Then, walk the trails around the Odiorne Point State Park looking for signs of spring, exploring the old military bunkers and rocky shoreline. Start the day by dropping by the Seacoast Science Center (located within the park) holding sea stars, browsing their aquariums, and learning about marine life. I use the under the hood connection and it is very quick but I understand your need for keeping a low profile.This trip is bound to satisfy Mom and the kids alike. I have used it since without further issues. My SA replaced the battery (after it had died and left her stranded twice) and Mike Miller suggested a Battery Tender. In time you will probably have issues based on your driving profile. ![]() Mom's driving profile didn't effectively charge the battery. ![]() I have discussed with my SA and with Mike Miller (Roundel Tech Writer) who lives nearby. Everything is fine and then you start to see the signs. I have experienced a dying battery firsthand on my Mom's 2010 528xi. With prior cars when the battery goes bad it won't start. So far it still starts fine, the lights are bright, the stereo is loud, the heated seats keep my ass warm, etc. This is 5 days/week plus a few miles on the weekends. 2.9 miles to the gym and then 1 mile back home. I have an '11 M3 with a little over 8k miles on it. I hear several people saying that using a battery tender makes a difference but I don't see how. I do take some 20-30 milers 1-2 times a week which helps but the cars still need the tender ![]() The real killer is the heated seats, defrosters, A/C full blast on the short trips. If I go to lunch, 2 more short trips and throw in a drive to the grocery store, now were looking at 8-10 trips the burn the battery power than charge it. How did I Do that? Drop off at daycare 3 (car odd)miles, from daycare to home 3 miles(car off), to grade school after school 4 miles (car off), then home. My last report was like 120 trips under 5km in 30 days. Where we live we are about 5 miles from most places we go. These short distances do not allow a battery to actually charge and you are using more power than charging. BMW's qualifies a bad profile by somebody who drive less than 5km at a time. ![]()
