For my first workshop I decided to do the academic portion of the enrichment workshop. I went to the Museum of natural history (I am on the far left with red vans). The museum wasn’t packed which was good because I hate being pushed around by people. I paid 1$ to get in even though that was not necessary because half of my friends paid 1 penny. Anyways, the museum was very interesting showing different cultures from different parts of the world. My favorite exhibit was the dinosaur exhibit because I thought it was cool seeing how they were big they were and it reminded me of Jurassic world, which is my favorite movie. My favorite dinosaur is the T- rex. I find it amazing how people were able to collect the bones and build each dinosaur together, even if not all the bones were real. Also I visited the mammal exhibit and I saw the big whale attached to the ceiling. I know whales are big but I never expected it be to that huge. I likes seeing the animals that are extinct too because I only saw those animals in movies or videos online. They looked real behind the glass so it the experience felt more authentic. I also really like the bird exhibit. It was really nice to see how different birds looked like in different regions all over the world, extinct or not. To be honest I didn’t think the museum would be that interesting. I expected to be there for 20 minutes get my pictures and leave, however now I do want to go to more museums and see more than historical features. I would like to see MOMA however it was closed for renovations. Overall I had a good time with my friends and I found the whole experience to be interesting.
