You’ll never look at the human body the same

Bodies… The Exhibition is in San Diego for the next few weeks and as an early birthday present I took Rachel to see it this weekend. Whatever the price, it’s completely worth it to go. Not only is it amazing to learn how the bodies are preserved, but seeing details from the various stages of fetal development to the blood vessels around the skull is sure to leave anyone speechless.

I did find it really funny that next to the display of a healthy lung vs. a smoker’s lung there was a large bin where people had thrown in their lighters and cigarettes. After seeing that, I really appreciate my lungs being pink instead of black!

    I don’t have to tell you how envious I am of your visit to this exhibit…But I am…Were you allowed to photograph anything? Please post if you did…

    No, they’re pretty strict about not even letting you answer your cell phone during the exhibit in case you’re trying to take a picture. Even then pictures don’t do justice to the surreality of the displays.
