Back at the main atrium to the exit
The sector is massive with a load of displays
Many of the walkways are lined with "filler" glass displays such as these between main sector areas.
especially the more you look at it
Omg, what happened to Diego the Smilodon?
The museums's gothic look does grow on you
That's all folks at the national history museum!

Not to mention cavernous
Now to add some tree for a spooky feel
This one's a big one!
This place needs more spooks like us

I second that theory on how the dinos died
The place was a fossil wonderland
Going dodo over dodos
Some where too small to be noticed
Dinosaurs are best kept on the walls

Most skeletons are suspended alongside the walk
Even this dino agrees!
