Back at the main atrium to the exit
The sector is massive with a load of displays
especially the more you look at it
Many of the walkways are lined with "filler" glass displays such as these between main sector areas.
Omg, what happened to Diego the Smilodon?
The museums's gothic look does grow on you
That's all folks at the national history museum!
Meeting our friendly cetacean friends, specifically the Delphinidae!
Over view of the display area from the 2nd floor
Blue whales included too.
Canines :P
Now onto the mammal section
The smaller dinosaurs
An animatronic rexdisplay at the end of the broadwalk
See what I mean by "Dinosaurs in the air"
The interior is stunning
Place decked in a rather gothic museum-y setting
Going heads over heels
The robot rex look consipated though
The tall ceilings here are a hint of what to expect...
Ready to go vampire hunting?
Dinosaurs!
Birds and a SWARM of them!
The insect & arachnid part of the displays
Oh so ostrich's ain't the biggest?
Here we are at the museum highlight
Overal view of the observation deck & displays
and the crowds!
Not to mention cavernous
Some of the many interactive info booths
The lower floor features mostly dino education booths
Now to add some tree for a spooky feel
This one's a big one!
The place was a fossil wonderland
I second that theory on how the dinos died
The museum front entrance, it glows strangely
This place needs more spooks like us
Some where too small to be noticed
Going dodo over dodos
Dinosaurs are best kept on the walls
Most skeletons are suspended alongside the walk
Sloth de-evolution?
Even this dino agrees!
Christmas fairgrounds by the musem site
One of the cool lookin gothic buildings
Lookie here!
At least we met some of the residents
Giving them a floating look
Neat lighting on a neat interior facade
Few of the small displays by the sidewalks
