Drumheller - Royal Tyrrel Museum

The Royal Tyrrel Museum in Drumheller Alberta is world renowned for it's paleontology.  The museum is dedicated strictly to dinosaurs and the science around them.  Although this is a top-class world famous museum we hadn't made the trip yet as we had been a few times to Dinosaur Provincial Park in Brooks and were told that was where they had uncovered and recovered most of their fossils from.   But the time had come to check it out for ourselves.
It was a nice museum, large and interesting. There were lots of fossils and some fascinating walking paths.  As Christians though and believers in a young earth as well as in the world wide flood as described in the Bible, the museum leaves much lacking. There is so much speculation on the age of the bones as well as how they became extinct.  There was a lady scientist sitting at a table there who was carefully scraping away at a piece of bone/mud and was telling us all about how it was about 70,000 years old.  It's a ridiculous amount of years, especially for the way they treat it.  And its remarkable at how they throw around thousands of years, give or take a few, but refuse to entertain fewer.  We see so plainly how the flood could have drowned all these big creatures and it all makes so much sense that way.  It's too bad the museum refuses to give two sides to a story, but it gives way to much conversation for ourselves.
The town of Drumheller is cute.  Very touristic, plasticine dinosaurs for photo ops everywhere.  It made for a very enjoyable day out.  In the town itself is a little park with this suspension bridge crossing the river and it was the perfect stop for a water and bathroom break.
