I think the museum was a success.
This wasn't a surprise trip this time and she knew we were going to a museum. All she said was,
"Hopefully it isn't just old rocks like in Croatia"
That was her only prior experience with museums - a 1500 year old foundry.
Her expectations were low.
But, once we were in there and looking around, she (and we) were pretty impressed. The dioramas were far better than I remember from my last visit to a museum, some 20 years ago. This was a first for my wife too.
She had had low expectations too.
But it was nice and we spent about three hours (until it closed) wandering around. It isn't a big place, but if we had more time we would have read more, looked in all the drawers, played for longer with the interactive displays. For a first visit though, it was a good taster.
I grabbed a few images where I could, as shooting through glass is never that much fun. If able to get up close enough though, it is decent.
As mentioned, I am 100% on phone at the moment, so formatting a lot of images just isn't going to happen. I did some basic editing where I could in Lightroom mobile and have added some here for you to scroll.
Tomorrow, I am looking forward to getting a couple great animal images at the zoo though, so will add them in a photo post later. Or perhaps it will be for Pinmapple. Unsure at the moment.
Scroll away...
This is my Dr Blight. Dead.
"He's behind me, isn't he?"
You don't scare me.
So, so human looking
I knew I should have stayed in bed this morning...
Smallsteps really had no idea about how big things truly are.
And this last one is the view from our hotel room. It is quite a nice and large room of about 35m2 and is a old building. We have a bay window that looks out to the city center in one direction, and more old buildings in the other. It is quite nice and would have a good atmosphere for a couple - when there daughter isn't in a sofa bed two meters away.
Can't have everything.
With an early wakeup for breakfast and the boat ride to the zoo (it is on an island), I am going to try ad get an early night. Going to bed early rarely works for me though, so I might be up pottering around Hive in a few hours anyway.
