Today we visited the Victoria an Albert Museum and the Natural History Museum which is across the street. I especially enjoyed a visit to the dinosaur section.

| One more dinosaur. Of course I have their names, but it’s too much trouble to add them. If you want to identify dinosaurs, ask a 4-year-old. |

My Previous Encounter with a Giant Sloth

| Our visit to the cave of the Giant Sloth in Patagonia in 2017 |
The Milodon, or Giant Sloth, whose bones are found throughout Patagonia, was hunted by early people, who probably contributed to the extinction of this one-ton beast. The bones of this animal were found in the cave where the statue now stands. For a while, it was hoped that this beast was not yet extinct.
