For this blog post I went to the Museum of Natural History. The museum was a wonderful experience and even though I had been there once before 5 years ago, the second time is just as good as the first. The museum offers a ton of exhibits and some are new like the mummy exhibit. But my favorite exhibit has to be the Hall of Biodiversity. I saw it on my last visit and it filled me with awe and such good memories that I had to go again this time. I like this exhibit because I really like animals and it has so many models of animals everywhere showing various different ecosystems and the creatures that live inside it. This leads into the Milstein Hall of Ocean Life where the giant whale is. The model whale is life size and its eye opening to realize how small we are compared to such a large creature. The Hall of Ocean Life also houses a ton of underwater ecosystems and model creatures that live inside them giving an insight to a land that would be very difficult to experience in real life.
This trip to the Museum of Natural History really helped me a lot. I was stressing out a lot these past 2 weeks over school work, work, and family and going to the museum really helped me relieve some of that stress. It was a break from all the work as well as helping me cop with the transition from high school to college.
