Dr Jack Horner to speak at Melbourne Museum

On 22 March, Dr Jack Horner is speaking at Melboutne Museum as part of the new Jurassic World exhibition: https://museumvictoria.com.au/melbournemuseum/whats-on/recreating-dinosaurs-for-our-future-world
I believe he has plans to create a Chickenosaurus.  That would be pretty cool.

Museum Victoria pics

Crewmates in Week 1 might remember Rob Zugaro from Museum Victoria shooting some footage to be used during the Jurassic World exhibition.  He also shot some stills - you can view some of the best ones at http://mvp.pixieset.com/dinosaurdreaming-2833316/.  Thanks Rob!

Filling in the hole

One of the tasks on the last day at site is to fill in our "hole".  It's a lot more fun shovelling dry sand down than wet sand up.
