The lunch and game at the crammed bus beside the museum

Well well well. its  lunch break  in the crammed bus. Unfortunately it was drizzling outside so we had to eat inside the bus. We were also supposed to play the 3rd Eco Dama game outside, but for the same situation, we had to continue the game.. inside the bus.


here is a picture of the ongoing ECOdama game

 well after all those we went to the MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY.  Luckily, the drive was only 2 minutes away.


 The museum was built  on September 30, 1976 it consists of preserved biological and zoological specimens, wood samples; by-products of microorganism, and also thousands of living plants/trees maintained in a separate location. This museum also serves as a reference for science and a center for documentation, research, and information.
