Natural History Museum of Maastricht

Last Sunday we visited the Natural History Museum of Maastricht
(Wikipedia also in english available here)

What an impressive entrance!!! The work of artist Han van Wetering

kenderman's favourite of the day : a fern fossil...

Mosasaurus of Maastricht

as long as I remember my family searched and found lots of small shark teeth fossils

one of my favourites of the day... the Lynx

 Not for the faint-hearted!

And don't get me wrong... I do prefer living animals

but I'm fascinated by the mummies...

Another piece of art by nature...

and some bugs...

What a magnificent room!!! Windows surround us...
I could live here happily ever after (big smile)

Maastricht

We visited Maastricht several times, the kenderman lived in this city once,

but we've never made a boat trip on the Meuse (Maas in Dutch).

Our closest friends invited us to join them so that's what we did! ☆

We enjoyed a really nice afternoon in good company.

After dinner we left Maastricht by dusk in a hurry.

Just in time before André Rieu started his open air concert (sigh of relief)

with star guest David Hasselhoff (rehearsal David + Andre)

when it started raining...
