All about the Museum

The pictures below show the twins at the Museum voor Natuurwetenschappen. (Museum of Natural Science) We saw dinosaurs that were actually found right here in Belgium. All the facts were written in multiple languages so we didn't have any trouble educating ourselves. There were lots of other interesting things to see like a huge collection of stuffed or mounted animals, rocks in every shape size and color and a history of the Belgian Zoo which used to stand where the museum is now located. Poor Maria did not get to come along. She spent the entire weekend at the SAT prep class. It is a two weekend course taught to high school students.

In the same weekend we went to an Abby in the Ardennes region of Belgium. It was so boring that I really don't have much to say about it. They did sell good beer and cheese so I guess that is a bonus. Unfortunately, the visit to the Abby was my idea and so uneventful that I we didn't even take any pictures. The visit to the museum was Bob's plan and he definitely won if we are comparing the two trips.
