GanSu Provincial Museum





We spent 2 hours yesterday venturing through the GanSu Provincial Museum and saw and learned some interesting things. We walked the Silk Road and learned about the history of the people who live in this region. Most of the people were Buddhist so that was a large part of the museum. We also saw artifacts made from copper from long ago. Also there were some large dinosaurs skeletons unearthed in this region. It was an interesting but long tour. One thing very interesting is the Flying Horse. It is a symbol of the province. Not sure about the history of it I'll have to google it and write about it for Abby Grace's Life book.

Thanks for the museum pics. It's good to see them since we weren't able to go. Thanks also for requesting prayer for Andrew and us. We love you guys and are praying for you all.
