Over the weekend we went to the Museo del Desierto or Museum of the Desert. It is situated on the outskirts of Saltillo atop a hill, and has an amazing view. The museum is a state attraction and boasts of having some of the first sets of human foot prints. The exhibits start with a lot of geology and geography common in Coahuila then, of course, the dinosaurs and other fossils native to the area.
I cant help but be blown away by the enormous dinosaur bones. It is hard to believe these creatures actually roamed the earth. If it wasnt for the blatant proof it would be easy to believe that they are just figments of the imagination. It really makes me think and wonder about the purpose of these creatures.
Remember these guys from Ice Age?
If you look closely you can see three very unusual creatures! 
Arent these turtles cute? They would climb up on the rocks or tree limbs. Occasionally one would fall off or get knocked off, but they would climb right back up!
Everyone bought a stuffed snake for a souvenier.
All the kids: Edgar and Julia (2 year old twins), Carter, Logan, Luke, and Chloe.
