Manchester/Scotland 2025 - Edinburgh National Museum of Scotland (7/7)

 

I saved the best for last on what I saw at the National Museum of Scotland! (Ok, I lied, the best for me was actually the viking grave and witches, lol). Anyway, here is a post about ancient creates in Scotland, or at least, their skeleton remains. But first, above an example of Jurassic Sea Life in Scotland, and I think that big creature there could be Nessie, right? I've visited Loch Ness before from Fort Augustus , but I've not seen Nessie before. I hope that is about to change when I visit the Loch Ness Centre on my next trip! 

There was a hall at the ground floor of the museum in one of the wings that have just skeletons of gigantic animals! They have them whether on land or see! So I am guessing what is shown here is probably a big gigantic aqua creature! Perhaps a whale? 

They have these huge skeleton that looked like a deer with antlers. They looked so magnificent. It's something I've never seen before so I thought it was pretty cool. Perhaps they are reindeers?

Here is another skeleton example. Could this be a moose? Oh man, at times like this I wish I've taken more info sign of objects I'm interested :P

Jaws! Of some animals which I have no idea what. Dinosaurs? Or maybe just a crocodile. Who knows! 

Ok, this one here is a dinosaur! It looked kinda similar to the one in Manchester Museum, but somehow I like the one in Manchester Museum better. Maybe cause there were less people in the museum there and so it's like you get the dinosaur all to yourself. Also, I was a lot more clear headed when I visit that museum even though I just got off a redeye flight. For the Scotland Museum, I was kinda fatigue from a whole day of walking, as well as information overload at the basement of this super huge museum. 

Selfie with the dinosaur!

They have modern gigantic sea creature hanging around too, so here is a selfie of me with the great white shark and some giant sotong behind! Lol. 

My a selfie with just the skull of the dinosaur and my fearful eye! Lol. That is all for my post on the National Museum of Scotland! I can't believe there are SEVEN parts to a museum that I didn't even plan to visit! I highly recommend you do go visit, and if you don't have time, just visit the Kingdom of Scots will do, that alone was mind-blowing, especially the collection of old artefacts that they have at the basement. Totally worth it!
