We took a trip out to the Museum of Nature this morning with Greg and his girls, and I got to take my first look around since the renovations started. There’s really only a very small portion of the museum open. It’s a little disappointing, but what they have set up is gorgeous. I was really impressed by the scale and breadth of their dinosaur displays. The bird and mammal collections are open too, with a really stunning array of creatures in big gorgeous display rooms. I can’t wait to see what the finished museum is going to look like.

We’ll have to come back to see it when the renos are done… actually, there was a travelling exhibition about forestry that was curated by the science museum in Ottawa we saw at the Montreal science museum that was neat… more so for the displays and lighting than the topic (though the topic itself was neat, and they also incoporated gameplay into the displays), but I do recommend it if it ever pops up there.
