Hey Everyone!
Today I had the chance to visit Dynamic Earth. I've been there a couple times before but they have added new attractions, so I thought it would be good to check it out again. I've already been underground about 3 times so I decided I would skip out on that and enjoy the other attractions Dynamic Earth offers. Dynamic Earth recently opened a Diamond Exhibition. This exhibition shows you how diamonds are formed, how you find them, how you cut them etc. Diamonds also has different machines that allows you to measure the size of your ring, as well as check out your diamonds to see if they are real. Unfortunately I don't have any diamonds :(!...yet...But if I did I would be sure to check them! Dynamic Earth provides people with very interesting information about Sudbury and mining. They have a booth set up where you can sit and watch about a 3 minute video on how Sudbury was formed. They have a Mining Command Center where people can operate a mine. Something exciting for the kids is Explora Mine. Kids can operate a conveyer belt and move "rocks", while using machines that are just their size. On my way out I decided to watch the 45 minute film "Forces of Nature". Forces of Nature talked about volcanos, earthquakes, and tornado. It gave details about each of them, how they occur and why, and how they can be prevented. I personally thought this film was very interesting. These natural darters are dangerous and not something I've really thought about before until now.
I've been to the Big Nickel many times before, but I thought because I was already in the area I might as well pay a visit to it. I still can't get over how amazing and unique the Big Nickel is, it sure represents Sudbury!
