Last weekend we went to the National Museum of Natural History with Elise’s friend Sarah Walter, who was visiting us from San Francisco. Henry loves to climb on hard surfaces, so the rocks and minerals exhibit was a real treat. He enjoyed feeling the different textures of the rock formations and crystals. Afterward, we visited the butterfly exhibit where you can walk through a tropical enclosure with hundreds of live butterflies, some of them as big as birds! Then we went to see the other insects, including a tank of giant cockroaches. Our last stop was the dinosaur exhibit, although by this stage Henry was more interested in climbing the museum stairs than looking at fossils. After an enjoyable day out, we headed home where Sarah made us a delicious pasta dinner.
Below are some pictures from our outing:
