Week 26 - Natural History Museum

After sweltering in 40deg heat, we decided that one way to escape the heat would be to visit a museum.  We caught a taxi to Puxi to the Natural History Museum, except that the taxi overheated and dropped us closer to People Square, so we had to walk back almost a kilometre to get to the museum... And then it was cool only for being in the shade and with high ceilings, this old museum had some portable air conditioners and ceiling fans only.  It was interesting to see all the specimens, skeletons and stuffed animals.  And a year after visiting and loving the Natural History Museum in London, it was funny that Jie Jie didn't like the dinosaurs because they had 'no skin'.
