More fun



We got to go to the Royal Ontario Museum. It is a big museum with lots of things to see. The main attraction hosted there now is the Terracotta Army Exhibit. WOW! It is pretty impressive. If you haven't heard of Emperor Qin and his warriors, it's worth looking up. There were also the standard dinosaur and mammal collections but both Avery and Chase were really impressed by the gems and mineral exhibit. They had every gemstone you could imagine. First, they were shown in the natural form, then, polished and shaped as you would see in a jewlery store. They had gold, silver and even diamonds. They also had asteroids and meteorites that were very cool. It was a fun day, and we learned some stuff too!
