Today has been such a wonderful day...a really, really nice family day.....
So much has happened that its difficult to remember it all and especially in order!
This morning we got up and went to the Royal Alberta Museum.....it's half price on Sunday mornings yet it was still quiet there....we were there in time to watch them feed the Northern Pike and Yellow Perch...they basically throw feeder fish into the tank...so we stood and watched these huge river fish swimming about and eating the little goldfish! That was cool! The Northern Pike ate about 5 in a row....he was fast....but the Perch were slower.....
There was a Photographic exhibition there of Galen Rowell's work...stunning pictures of Mt Everest and Mt Mckinley at dusk and dawn.....pictures of the Rockies and mountain flowers......stunning work!
The Museum as always was wonderful.....its a great museum already and yet they are renovating the whole place and building more galleries...I can't wait to see how great it is then!
Oh and in the Aboriginal section, there is a headdress....its stunning....very long headdress with feathers.......and it was given to the museum by 'Stabbed-by Accident'.....kind of a funny name huh? Above are some pics of Dan at the museum including one by the headdress....
