We arrived at the hall of dinosaurs at 2:42 pm.It was in the Field Museum.We saw the cousin of the T-Rex, and the Maiasaura.The T-Rex cousin is smaller than the T-Rex. The Marginocephalian eats plants. I thought that the T-Rex cousin was real neat. Aileen said “It is super awesome.

At the Field Museum we saw an exhibit called “The Lions of Tsavo.” There we saw two stuffed lions in a big glass case. I learned that people stopped the building of a railroad because the lions ate 140 of the railroad workers. The lions were killed in 1898. Something that is cool is that the lions of Tsavo ate so many people. What Mrs. Nealis said about it was “I was surprised that they let the lions eat so many people before they did anything about it.” The Field Museum has animals that aren’t real to remember things in history and New Glarus has statues of cows to resemble farm land. I liked “The Lions of Tsavo” exhibit very much.
When we went to the aquarium I saw this really creepy fishy with a really really big head I saw it and I said “And I thought I had a big head”

During the trip in the morning and afternoon I took pictures. Also I wrote about what people did on the bus to keep them busy and content. Some people were watching the movie Night at the Museum and talking to their seat buddy:}Their were a lot of people listening to I-pods and music players and playing their electronics!! I learned that they made DSI’s that they can take pictures and pictochat with rainbow color! Something that I thought was really cool was that NOBODY was sleeping not even trying to. Also I thought that when 15 people were pictochatting at once.I also asked people what they thought Vanessa mentioned how cool it was of how much people had electronics. It reminded me of everybody having fun in New Glarus.
Amazon Rising tells a story of a changing river and the people who live on the floodplain. We saw a Goliath bird eating spider. We noticed that it can burrow underground. We thought it was cool that it’s leg span is seven inches, this DOES NOT remind us of anything in New Glarus. Guess what! The Goliath bird eating spider barely preys on birds!!-Mike and Kyle
There were lots of fish at the aquarium. Here are some names of fish.
This is a Parana.
This is a Hammerhead Shark.
This is a Stingray.
The first time we came in we shrunk and everyone was only an inch tall and then we entered a room where we were underground. There were spiders, earwigs and their babies, earthworms, and flower bulbs, crayfish, and it was really gross seeing all of the bugs because we were small and they were huge!!
We got on the bus for the trip home at exactly 6:00pm. The trip home was in a coach bus. On the way home we saw lots of cars and allot of rain. I learned that at 6:30pm people get tires from a long day, that there is allot of traffic in Chicago, on the bus people like to play video games. I think the skyscrapers are really cool. Efrain said “That the trip home was boring" there is nothing to do.” It reminds me that Coach Busses are bigger and better that school Busses.

At the aquarium there was a 4d movie. We had to have some glasses. In the theater they had bubbles and water squirted out on us. Air came out from under us and on the back of the chair something poked us.

We are on our way home from Chicago. Everyone is tired from walking all round the aquarium and the museum and some people are kind of hyper because they must of had sugar our something at McDonald’s. People are playing their D.S.’s or their PSP’s and and the people who are on the D.S.’s are at picto chat where you can chat with anyone.
After a long day in Chicago, everybody was tired the next day. That day we had a D.A.R.E. roller skating party that we attend around 1.00. Before departing for the roller skating party, we each got to pick a movie that was playing in each of the 3 classrooms. The choices were: Two Brothers, The Incredibles, and The tale of Desperaux.
At about 2:00 we saw the Inside Ancient Egypt exhibit. It is in the museum. In the exhibit we saw a bunch of different mummies, of babies, adults, and children. I learned how they make the body into a mummy. I thought that seeing all of the mummies was really neat. Jeneva said “Wow all of these mummies are really neat.”

For our Chicago trip we ate at Rock and Roll McDonalds. It was really big and expensive and the outside was covered with glass. They had a bunch of food and awesome chairs and tables. Here is a picture of Brianne and Whitney Stuffing themselves.

At 2:56 on Thursday, March 7th, in the Field Museum I saw the Man-Eater of Mfuwe. A scary maneless blonde furred lion, was in a glass cage. In 1991 this lion became the largest man eating lion on record. Over six people were victimized. The correct pronunciation is Muh-FU-way. It must have been a female lion, because it was maneless. She was in Africa, in country named Mfuwe.The locals thought the man-eater was a Demon, or a Sorcerer. Syd said “It has yellow eyes an it looks creepy.”

We arrived at the Pawnee Earth Lodge at 4:01. The building that we were in was the Field Museum. We saw a pyramid or something like that. We learned how they dressed and how they look. Something that we saw cool was their way of living. Aileen said it was cool.
This exbit does not remind me of anything in New Glarus.
Hey,
Today we went on a field trip and we went to the Plants of the world in the Field Museum! We got there at 3:02. We saw small and big plants. We learned that there are all different kinds of plants. I Aileen Jones thought that was cool was that there are alot of plants. Alex N. thought was cool is that there were alot of beans that people haven’t seen before. The thing that reminded me of New Glarus is that there are bean at New Glarus.

We saw this turtle at 11:10am. This was in the Local Waters. In the tank we saw some fish and the turtle. I learned that he gets shaved once a month and he weights 100lbs. He does not move a lot. The turtle has a fish lure in his mouth. Bailey said,”That turtle was cool.”
