I enjoyed my visit to the National Museum, particularly its bog corpses. The corpses are from hundreds of years ago, yet the hair and skin and clothing may be remarkably preserved due to the lack of oxygen in the bog. Other highlights of the museum include the Celtic jewelry.
The museum store had an excellent selection of books for kids, adults and scholars, some of them obscure.
over 5 years agoWe went to Canmore for two things: cross-country skiing and hoping for decent food. We got both. We rented skis at the Canmore Nordic center for several days running, which worked for us. Along with skiing there at the Canmore center, we also made it to Mt. Shark and to Lougheed National Park, both of which had groomed and mostly empty trails with sufficient snow to ski in March. Many of the trails at the Nordic center were closed due to insufficient snow.
We also enjoyed our meals, particularly at Luna Blue, Zona’s Late Night Bistro, and Crazy Weed Kitchen. More details at full blog entry
Finally, we found a lovely little climbing gym. There was no top-roping, but the bouldering was significantly better than we’ve seen in the gyms around our own home.
over 5 years agoThis was my favourite museum in Vienna, due to my interest in Applied Art. The lace was a highlight for me. The museum had very extensive collections, was uncrowded, cool and pleasant. The shop is quite neat too.
