The Natural History Museum.


Yesterday we woke up very early and drove to Los Angeles to visit The Natural History Museum. The Littles are very interested in dinosaurs, in particular Savannah, and so it made for the perfect family outing. We've recently watched the movies Night At The Museum and Night At The Museum 2, Littles kept asking to see their favorite characters.
Savannah and Ivy interacting with the mammal exhibit.
I enjoyed the gallery dedicated to early California settlement, these paintings of southern California missions caught my attention.
We were all amazed by the great halls of animal dioramas. One hall exhibited African wildlife and the other (our favorite) North American Mammals. The taxidermy on these preserved creatures was perfection. I kept looking at their eyes to see if they would blink!
