Night ...er Day at the museum

Today I went with my group to the Wagner Free Institute of Science of Philadelphia. It was founded in the late 1800's and has barely changed sine the day it opened. The Wagner museum is a great way to learn about how museums were back in the 1800's unlike the remodeled Smithsonian Institution. Probably the most impressive thing about the museum had to be the Brontoserus excelsus bone at the back of the museum, it also hosts the worlds first ever discovered sabertooth tiger bones, not bad for a museum no bigger than a barn. One warning though, as I said earlier the museum has remain the way it was back in the 1800's, that means no air conditioning! I'd highly recommend The Wagner Free Institute of Science of Philadelphia, just bring along lots of water and some fans.
