Balboa Park

Bank of America cardholders get to visit selected museums FREE in the month of May, so xinyi, saskia, yaolong & I went to visit the 3 selected museums at Balboa Park San Diego

~Museum of Natural History~
Having a mini picnic outside


A huge moving globe which shows the history of development in the world
U get to select past, present or future
For past, u dont see much lights during the nighttime as tech had not advanced
For present, u will see much more lights, especially in the capitals of each country

The ancient & extinct Gulper, a kind of whale
Its beak only (shown here) is longer than me

Info on the Gulper

Sabertooth

Mammoth skeleton

Condor


~Museum of Art~ *yawns*
Found this museum to be particularly boring, I simply don't know how to appreciate art

My fave piece of painting
