What a day
After over-coming my fears of flying for the first time on Sunday to get to Tucson, today, Monday was full of wonder and excitement. The Desert Museum was amazing. There was everything you could and couldn't imagine to learn about the desert and the creatures that live in it. The raptor free flight was incredible. I myself had a hawk fly inches from the top of my head. But after that we were able to explore all of the animal exhibits, some of which were not visible. The desert is truly a beautiful place filled will animals well designed to survive its difficult climate.

Today we went to the Desert Museum. It was very interesting to walk around and see everything that they had to offer. The raven show where the birds flew right over our heads was probably the most exciting part of the day. I was fairly upset that the tortoises were not out because I was really looking forward to seeing them. Also, seeing the hummingbirds close up and how fast they had to actually flap their wings to stay in the air was amazing. After the Desert Museum we went and saw the pottery. It was cool to see the designs and to see how good the pottery looked for being so old. Alright, well I will update this again tomorrow after we get back from the desert.
