Germany and France: Bye Bye Europe–May 20

While I got ready to go, Sean was able to watch what we had missed the night before. The game ended in a shootout and Chelsea won. I’m guessing that a lot of people in Munich (and probably also Frankfurt) were hurting this morning!

Knowing that we only had a few hours left before we’d be heading home, we rushed off by subway (more confusing a system to me than that of Paris) to the Nature Museum. The draw was that they house the most and the biggest dinosaur skeletons in Europe. It was well-done and Sean did enjoy it. But it’s hard to compare with the Nature Museum that we had visited in Tokyo.

This museum does have impressive displays of stuffed birds and other animals. And they also have something I’ve never seen before in a museum: a room full of preserved animal anatomy parts, from eyeballs to brains to embryos and more.

It was an unusual way to end our Europe trip, but we like to try doing unusual things when we travel and that’s often when we have the most fun.

Europe, we hope to return again sometime soon! We still have so much more we want to see.
