The awesome Natural History Museum

Today we went to the Natural History Museum.  The idea I learned from today was that Neanderthals have big feet, which probably means that they lived on rocky terrain and had bigger feet to help them get a grip on rocks.  I came to this idea because one time in the museum there was a compare foot sizes and I saw that our feet were much smaller than theirs.  I think that maybe Neanderthals had tough skin for that rocky terrain.  Another reason I think Neanderthals have big feet is for running because they didn't have cars or horses or any transportation.  This affects the greater world because if they did not have that resource then they would not have been able to migrate, and we would not be here today.

Pratt Institute

I had a good time although I was a little disappointed that we didn't have a tour. We sat in the auditorium and listened to things about not dropping out of school. There was this guy dressed up as Michael Jackson and he really could do all the things that Michael Jackson could do, but almost better. Sorry I haven't been posting lately. I've been busy with school.  More next time.  Anjali
