Egyptian Geese

The next area we entered transported us to a land halfway around the globe: the Sonoran Desert. A massive turtle shell, life-size cacti, and replicates of desert animals filled the sand-covered floor of the desert. Displays explained the difference between day-time and night-time temperatures and creatures in the desert. And the setting was perfect for the exhibit in the very next room, which was full of African and Egyptian artifacts. The wall hanging above was one of my favorites, very typical of old Egyptian art.
