While in town for the wedding, we stopped by the Houston Museum of Natural Science. All I can say is, if you get a chance to go, GO! It was amazing. The hall of palentology included some incredibly detailed trilobites, awe inspiring dinosaur skeletons, and cheeky plaques and displays. The mineral hall was breathtaking. And we found nemo (along with a lot of gorgeous specimens) in the mollusk display. It really deserves much more of a write up than this. Do wear your walking shoes though, it's a full day of discovery.
HA. No, I was half afraid when I saw your title that you were posting about the Creation *cough cough* Museum, where evidence is presented that humans kept dinosaurs as pets clear up through the medieval period, giving rise to the historical *cough* myth of dragons.
ReplyDeleteI wish I was joking. I'm so glad you didn't fall down that rabbit hole.
