Museum of Natural History

Or, Museum of A Million, Zillion People Who All Want to See Dinosaur Bones. Do not go to the Museum of Natural History on the Friday after Thanksgiving. It will be extremely crowded and chaotic.

Luckily, Sadie was not particularly interested in seeing dinosaur bones so when we saw how crowded the dinosaur exhibits were. she was fine to go find some other exhibits that were less busy. This in in the Hall of Aztec Peoples. We are copying the pose of the statue.

We also had fun looking at African Mammals, seeing the Live Lizard and Snake exhibit and the Live Butterflies. Sadie started out very nervous that a butterfly might land on her, but she relaxed and enjoyed seeing the beautiful creatures up close. Nellie seemded to enjoy the museum as well. She took a very long nap!

It's too bad that you had big crowds to contend with. However, it's nice that the girls get exposure to the NYC sites by having grandparents in the city. I'm guessing that Dan is using his new camera--more pictures with Ann. Very nice!
