Museum of Nature

Let me take you back in time to when we were living in Ottawa. There are so many museums and parks to see in Ottawa, so i was a little sad to leave earlier than planned. I didn't see near as much as i had hoped. We did happen to go to the museum of nature though. It was amazing. 4 floors for the magical mother nature herself. What a lucky lady. I found the dinosaur exhibit a lot of fun. I think the idea of evolution is the best ever. I can't get enough. The dinosaur exhibit was full of examples. They had a whale exhibit i wish i would have taken pictures of. Whales used to have an extra pair of fins. Coolio! Anyways...The next two pictures are of a fossil they found that gives us good reason to believe some dinosaurs actually had feathers. As scary as dinosaurs are, it sure would be interesting to have a way to have them in our zoos. Alive and scampering around in a caged habitat.






This is the bones of a giant turtle. Prettiest shell I've ever seen. I think it would be fun to be swimming and have this giant friend come for a visit. hee hee




If your curious how many birds we weigh...

They had awesome frog exhibit. We enjoyed these waxy grandpa frogs.



They even let me play with the polar bears. It was a magical place.
Thanks to Levi, this stinky friend made it into the blog. I named him Levi.

Emery fell asleep after a fun day. I didn't even notice she was asleep until i went to show her some of the creepy crawly bugs. Its always a nice treat when she is content enough to fall asleep in my arms. So there you go. A blog for all you complainers. (you all know who you are). I expect many comments from you.

  2. We went to the zoo when we were in Salt Lake and Matt made me take a picture of this snake "because he was wrapped around the tree so cool". Why do I want a picture of a snake??? Snakes are not friendly animals...lol.

  3. I commented first. How come it's gone? Are my comments not good enough for your blog?
