Day 4 – Museum of Ancient Life

Today was the Museum of Ancient Life. We left our hotel room, all packed up, at about 9, and then drove for about an hour and a half to the museum. It was soooo cool, really the only way to try and describe it is through pictures.
Yeah, Kayl took a LOT of pictures.
Well, just stay with me. It’s very awesome.

Oh no Bunny! Look out!
Wow! A giant sea turtle!
Ah! T-rex!
“Good thing this doesn’t move…”
“Wow. This is a dinosaur footprint, and it is so much bigger than us!”

Check it out! A supersaurus!
This is where panoramas come in handy.

“What do you think is in there?”
Bunny, you go first.

I thought this was cool, it’s petrified lightning.
Basically,
If you can’t view the image above, this is what it says:
When lightning strikes wet sand, it often fuses the sand grains and forms a hollow, glass tube called a fulgurite. These structures have been preserved in rocks back to Precambrian times.

“Those are some scary dinos!”

Bunny, you know you aren’t actually underwater?
“Don’t ruin the illusion Foxy…”

We made it to MOAB tonight, and we are going to be staying in the KOA here for about a week. The main things we came down to Utah for are in MOAB.

"You mean 'COOL rock formations'!"
