Karin & Daniel flew in from Seattle and stayed with Cheryl and I this weekend. We had tons of fun including going to the Museum of Science and Industry and seeing Body Worlds II. In case you don't know, that's the exhibit with real human bodies that have been put through a plastification process and you can see all the muscles and organs. No skin, just muscles and bones and organs. It was wild. The bodies were all posing doing something like pitching a baseball or a couple ice skating. They also had organs in exhibit boxes to get a close look at just about everything. Brains, lungs, uterus... fetus... one of the bodies was 5 weeks pregnant when she died so you could see the change in her uterus. Like I said, it was wild. But very very cool and interesting.
The museum, however, was a complete dump. Has anyone been there lately? Disorganized, dirty... and the only worth while exhibit was the Body Worlds. That was only dissapointing b/c I remember it being sooo cool. But I was about 7 and nothing is really how I remember it at 7.
Did anyone else see the nervous system as it winds its way around the insides of our bodies?
