06/12/2001: New York
Off to The Museum of Natural History, and the Planetarium
Where we were informed no more than 7 times that the film would
be narrated by Tom Hanks
The actual planetarium is inside this 4 storey sphere
What would a planetarium be without planets?
And real meteorites to touch?
(Try as they might, they couldn't topple this 15ton iron one)
The planetarium from the exterior
Out to Central Park for lunch
Central Park West, a few blocks up from where
John Lennon used to live
Back into the museum, only to find the dinosaur halls were closed,
but the Hall of Biodiversity was interesting.
I tawt I taw a puddy tat!
Aren't you clad that these things are a
deep ocean thing?
And real meteorites to touch?
Down near Station Square (not far from where we're staying
is a replica Belgium village (no, I don't know why)
...again...
