Day 3 - Sunday 1st July - The Universe & Butterflies

 Day 3 - Sunday 1st July

New York City - The N. H. The Universe & Butterflies

Weather: Hazy, but warm. Not much wind

The first thing that we went to see at 11:30  was the short Big Bang digital show and then down the Universe Journey spiral to the Planetarium which was a longer and more detailed digital experience.

For something different we then went to the Butterfly Vivarium. 



This was an amazing experience for adults as well as kids. It was big glasshouse within the Museum that housed lots of different kinds of butterflies in a warm environment. Anyone that wanted could get a butterfly to sit on their finger - like a live interaction between them and a normally shy creature.
