I really enjoyed the going to the Mendel museum today. Although the train ride was long and we didn't get to go into the actually library or other parts of the monastery, it was a neat experience to go to the place where genetics was founded. I enjoyed seeing some of the original documents that Mendel himself wrote, but was a little shocked that non of the descriptions were in German because even though we are in Czech Mendel spoke and wrote mainly in German. And the pea plants outside were a nice addition.
I would like to think that they are the ancestors of Mendel's pea plants
ReplyDeleteI agree! I wish the greenhouse was there too.
