Last winter, I went to the Dinosaur Museum Park at Haenam (near Gwangju, where I live) with my boyfriend. It may seem childish, but I like dinosaurs. Indeed, when we were at the museum park my boyfriend and I thought: “Maybe we need a kid?” Because there were no couples without children there, only kids with their parents.

When I went into the park, I could see a huge model of a Sauropod. It was the same size as the actual Brachiosaurus! I was very excited because Sauropods are my favorite kind of dinosaurs. Sauropods, Apatosaurs, Brachiosaurs and Diplodocus are a family of dinosaur species that are grass-eating and huge. They are over 25 meters long and they weigh 10 tons.  I love their large size, long necks and good-natured personalities. They are herbivorous dinosaurs, so they eat only grass and plants. They don't kill any other dinosaurs unless they have been threatened.

There were also a lot of bones and fossilized footprints of dinosaurs. Haenam was once the habitat of these ancestors of modern reptiles. We found their footprints everywhere throughout the museum. Some of them were not even protected!

It was a very cold day, but it was enjoyable. I was so happy to see lots of figures of dinosaurs. After the museum tour, we went to Young-am and ate grilled octopus for dinner. It was hot and delicious!
