TERRA COTTA SOLDIERS!!

My dad and I went to the Bowers museum that had some of the Terra Cotta statues from China! It was sooooooooooo much fun to learn about ancient chaina and see some amazing statues that have survived nearly 2000 years! In case you dont know these statues were built to guard the Emperor in his after life. They ranged From Generals to musicians at horses to servants. They were found by some guy in China trying to build a well. there are over 70000 statues total and they are still finding more! It is truly amazing!Pictures were not allowed in the Terra Cotta section so these are outside the area with the statues. the first two us next to some statue. The next is me with this hilarious guy!! he was all dressed up like a Terra Cotta Warrior and would stand still for a long time and then move scaring someone half to death!! one woman was looking at his face and when he moved she screamed and said that she almost peed her pants!! it was really funny! the last one is me sitting in a giant hand at a kids museum. We only stayed there for like five minutes because it was made for two year olds! but i needed a picture of me in a huge hand!!
