Day 7
Maritime museum
January 19 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 27 °C
Ended the walking at the Maritime museum. They had a destroyer called Vampire and a submarine built in Scotland along with other reproductions. It was fun exploring them, no way I could have worked in the sub with 60 people on there.

There were volunteers giving info out which was cool, the one guy was a bit too into it and asked every child trying to exit the submarine if they had any questions. If they didn't, and most didn't, he would say "you should", then tell the parents that with the way things are going in the world their kids are likely to get drafted to work on one. So his prediction is all out war in about 10 years or so. He seemed excited by this.Read more

Day 81
Sharks and stories at the MuSeaUm
April 19, 2019 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C
Well these Sydney-siders have got the art of tempting passers-by down pat! We hadn't even heard of the MuSeaUm until walking past it on the way to Darling Harbour - ended up changing our plans to spend almost two days centered around Australia's National Maritime Museum!

The first day, we realized that we would not have enough time to visit all of the exhibits behind the paywall, so we decided to go for the free part of the museum to get warmed up. The special topic was sharks and the not-so-secret message: Please stop eating us! Highlights included handling a modern shark chainmail glove, as well as some real and replica teeth, and lots of cool shark-themed models.

Stories about sailors, ships and battles won and lost, especially around Australia's history as a penal colony, were more interesting for the parents than the kids. There was still plenty for them too, in the form of gigantic restored engines from decommissioned vessels and learning about some of the amazing men and women who have circumnavigated the world.Read more

Wir haben einen ganzen Museumstag gemacht, bei dem wir ins australische maritime Museum und ins australische Museum gegangen sind. Im maritimen Museum haben wir einen modellbauer gesehen der ein winziges Modell gesäubert hat. Im australischen Museum gab es viele verschiedene Ausstellungen über die Geschichte der ganzen Welt im ersten Raum, über Tiere in Australien, über die first nations, über Dinosaurier und über das great barrier reef.
________________________________
We did a whole day in museums. We did go into the Australian maritime Museum and into the Australian Museum, which is a history Museum. In the maritime Museum we saw an old man that was cleaning a little model of a ship that was very old. In the Australian Museum you could learn about history from all over the World, australian animals, dinosaurs, first nations and the great barrier reef. That was pretty cool.Read more
