My friend and I were in Albuquerque last month and had a delightful visit at the New Mexico Natural History Museum! Michael was the guard/docent we met after we entered the museum, and he was extremely helpful and informative. He told us about Bella, the interactive dinosaur (actually the Bisti Beast, Bistahieversor Sealeyi) in the central atrium, and how to navigate the galleries if we wished to take the Walk Through Time (Timetracks). It's a truly brilliant way to organize a museum! We started on the upper floor, with the Big Bang, and progressed through the origin of life, migration of organisms from the sea to the land, rise of the dinosaurs, the asteroid that triggered the mass extinction, and the rise of the mammals, to present-day environments and challenges. All the exhibits were very informative and user-friendly; in addition, there were plenty of interactive stations for younger visitors to learn more about the content in the exhibits. We spent about 90 minutes touring the Walk Through Time and could easily have stayed longer if we'd visited the other galleries. (We unfortunately had an engagement in the afternoon and had to leave.) But even a short visit was enchanting, and we absolutely enjoyed ourselves!
