Awesome day out posted by Suzy as she hosts Zeebers for a couple of weeks in Wisconsin. Click any hot linked photo to shoot to her blog. Thanks, Suzy. This is too cool. And Dillan is a real sweetheart.WELL, THEY WOULDN'T LET ME TAKE ANY PICTURES IN THE MUMMY EXHIBIT, EVEN WITHOUT A FLASH.....SO THAT WAS A BIG BUMMER! ANYHOW, THE EXHIBIT WAS AWESOME, MOSTLY ALL HUMAN, SOME ANIMALS AND FISH. ONE UNREAL THING WAS A CHILD MUMMY FOUND IN EGYPT AND IT HAD BLONDE HAIR! I THOUGHT THAT WAS REALLY ODD. OH, AND ONE OF THE MALE MUMMIES ALSO STILL HAD HIS WILLY, CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT? LOL IT MUST HAVE BEEN IMPRESSIVE WHILE HE WAS ALIVE, AS IT WAS AT LEAST 6 INCHES IN LENGTH AND WELL A BIT SHRIVELED... ;P
AFTER WE WENT THROUGH THE EXHIBIT WE SAW THE MUMMY DOCUMENTARY MOVIE AT THE IMAX IN THE MUSEUM AND THAT WAS MOSTLY ABOUT OBTAINING DNA SAMPLES FROM THEM AND HOW THEY FOUND OUT WHERE TO GET THEM FROM, SINCE TRYING TO GET DNA SAMPLES FROM MUMMIFIED SKIN AND MUSCLES DIDN'T WORK, THEY FOUND OUT THEY COULD GET DNA SAMPLES FROM THE BONES. GUESS HOW THEY FOUND THAT OUT? NOT TOO LONG AGO SOMEONE HAD DONATED THEIR BODY TO SCIENCE AND YEP, THE SCIENTISTS DECIDED TO MUMMIFY THE BODY IN THE TRADITION THAT THE EGYPTIANS DID AND FOUND THEY COULD GET A DNA SAMPLE FROM THE BONES OF THAT HUMAN DONOR.
THEY THINK THAT THIS MIGHT BE ONE WAY TO HELP US ALL BECAUSE BY FINDING OUT INFORMATION FROM THE DNA, THE SCIENTISTS MAY BE ABLE TO FIND CURES FOR ILLNESSES.
WHAT ELSE DID WE DO, WELL WE LOOKED AT THE OTHER EXHIBITS AS WELL IN THE MUSEUM AND DID GO INTO THE LIVE BUTTERFLY EXHIBIT AS WELL, BUT I DIDN'T GET ANY PICS IN THERE, WE DIDN'T STAY LONG AS DILLAN WAS COMPLAINING THAT HE COULDN'T BREATHE IN THERE, LOL. IT WAS QUITE HOT IN THERE AND THE AIR WAS REALLY THICK. NO BUTTERFLIES DID LAND ON US EITHER, WE DIDN'T HAVE COLORFUL ENOUGH CLOTHES I GUESS.
