In Which I see Da Vinci



My parents and siblings are here visiting, so we are doing the rounds of tourist-y things. On Saturday, we went to the National Geographic Museum to see the exhibit of replicas from Leonardo Da Vinci's notebooks. He designed some weird looking things, but it turns out a lot of them actually work. I'm going to try to upload photos, but my computer's been glitchy, so they may be coming at a later date.


Ok, so now I got the pictures working. Here is one of a tank Da Vinci designed. Someone got the brilliant idea to built it and try it out. Apparently it does work against arrows and swords.
