Carnegie Museum of Natural History, Dinosaurs in Their Time

The new exhibition at the Carnegie Museum of Natural History, Dinosaurs in Their Time, shows great ingenuity in the way the displays are organized. Its one of those exhibits where no expense was spared. I particularly like the fossil fish tank with fossil fish from the Kansas Chalk pictured above.

A novel idea

Passing through Taipei International Airport recently, a new approach to get visitors into museums is to bring the exhibits to the airport. Not only does it provide something for travellers to do other than shop, but provides excellent learning environment, it also serves as a place to chill, especially after flying for 10 hours.
