Note: All of the pictures have been shrinked down to fit the
page size. To see the BIGGER version of the same picture, simply download the
picture and open up with your graphics editor. Most of these pictures are actually
somewhere in the range of 1024x768 (I cropped the pictures and also changed the lighting
in some cases).
This page needs to be viewed at 1024x768 resolution or higher.
If you don't have a 17" monitor, I feel bad for you...
The
Butterfly Garden |

|

|
Houston Museum of Natural
Sciences actually has more than just the famous Butterfly Garden. But of course,
since butterflies are one of Nancy's favorites, we headed that way first! It's no
surprise that Nancy is the most excited one of them all. She even wore the suggested
bright clothing, hoping one of the butterflies would land on her. As for me, I think
the wings of the butterflies are pretty and some are even gorgeous, but they are still
bugs to me!!!! Yeeekkk. As you can see I am wear almost all black.....
:)
Inside the butterfly garden, the temperature was set to be about 80 degrees.
It was cold outside that day, so all of us were wearing warm clothings. No
one knew that the temperature inside of this glass building was going to be soooo hot!
We were all sweating!!!! But the scenery is sure worth it! <see below> |

| Above is just two of the few butterflies we
seen that day. The whole place was crowded with butterflies that day. It
wasn't as scary as I thought it would be. The brochure stated that most of the
butterflies die within two weeks. Isn't that short? It's too bad that their
life is so short.

| Okay, here are all the movies that we
recorded: Butterfly1.mpg
- really good one, you actually see the butterflies!
Butterfly2.mpg - Okay, I'm not as a good movie taker
as Eddie is, but you kinda get to see some butterfly in flying action!
Butterfly3.mpg - Better one that I took.
Butterfly4.mpg - A little Museum of Natural Sciences
intro done by Eddie (until Nancy interrupted him). |
