One last day and only a few things left to check off. We spent the morning in the American Natural History Museum. We sat in the huge Hall of Diversity with the life-sized blue whale arching above us. The low light and quiet sound scape makes it easy to imagine you are underwater. Life-sized models of thousands of incredible creatures, scores of looping videos, and interactive computers with details of anything you see, make it the most incredible place to spend time. I'd be signing up for a life-time pass if I lived here.
We had a checklist of highlights and moved our way through world-class exhibits as we sought out the massive west-coast canoe, the Star of India, a beautiful blue star sapphire, and ended up in the main foyer under the skeleton of a barasaurus reaching up to the ceiling.
