skin, bones, and much more

about a month ago we found out that BODYWORLDS was in town. (not to be confused with 'bodies: the exhibition' which is the knock-off and not the original). i was excited to find some discount coupons and had planned to go towards the end of september. it would be leaving SD in october. then, to our surprise, we got an invitation from scripps to attend an annual dinner at the museum of natural history and the exhibit was included!! i was so excited! the dinner was pretty lame, and we knew no one there. but a photography exhibit was going on at the museum that weekend. bonus! and the bodies were amazing! it's been years since i took anatomy in college, but i have always been fascinated by it. so much work went into preserving the bodies and prepping them for display. if the exhibit ever comes to your town, i highly recommend you go see it! (don't take kids - it's a little graphic). you can read all about the process and the history of it on the website. sorry there are no photos. photography wasn't allowed inside the exhibit, but i'm sure you can find muchas pics on the website.
