Chimps… more than just bananas!
I’d been wanting to check out the exhibit at the Children’s Museum “Discovering Chimpanzees: The Remarkable World of Jane Goodall” since it opened. So, this past Sunday afternoon, we did just that! Really good exhibit and I learned alot, too! Developed a new appreciation for chimps… besides being as cute-as-all-get-out, they’re really intelligent and amazingly strong! 3x the strength of an adult human male!!! There’s a part of the exhibit that challenges you to test your strength in comparison. (Note to self: NEVER get into a bar fight with a chimp!) It made me want to learn more about Jane Goodall, too. I’ll have to pick up some of her books.
Other neat things at the Museum: the bed of nails, the infrared camera, the living wall and the water table!
Good way to spend a few hours. Plus, check out the Exhibit Cafe. It’s fresh, local AND organic. I had the grain salad… made with quinoa (that’s KEEN-wah) … yummy!
