The Bodies Revealed trip was so awesome. Learning about the body in class and looking at diagrams is one thing but experiencing real life organs only a pane of glass away from you is completely different. Not many people get to see what their insides look like, and all of the anatomy students are so fortunate to get to see that. One of the things that just awed me the most was all of the capillaries and tiny venules in the arm. (Click on the highlighted words to see a picture.) There were so many it just looked like fuzzy strings. Thank you for that great experience. :)

This trip was so amazing! Actually getting to see the body in different positions and seeing the different parts in real life is definitely more interesting than looking in a text book. Seeing the body cut into transverse and frontal sections was such an eye catcher. We had talked about it, but seeing it definitely made more sense. Also seeing how many blood vessels you have just in your arm was unbelievable. It makes it more believable that if you take all the blood vessels in your body and strech them out from end to end, it will circle the world two times! This trip was a great experience and I would definitely take the time to see it again. Thank you for giving us that chance. Our trip to Kansas City was unbelievable. I was so amazed at how unique our body structures look on the inside. Being able to see the comparison between smokers lungs compared to healthy lungs was interesting. Seeing the body in motions, such as playing baseball, a violin or even dancing was amazing, and different to see how our muscles move when we do activities. When I first walked into the museum I was a bit uncertain about it, but after going through it, it was so worth it. I felt proud when some of the information stated about the bodies was that which I learned in anatomy class, so that made me feel pretty smart :). I plan to see the upcoming body’s museum that is coming to the Exploration Place. This trip was totally worth it, and I would recommend anyone to see it.

WOW! I had such a great time on this trip. I'm really glad we were able to go at the end of the year. It helped put all the information that we had learned together. I was able to understand what was what and what connected to this etc. because we went at the end of the year. I really enjoyed seeing all the blood vessels in the arm. It was unbelievable! It made me realize how detailed our bodies are. I definatly want to go to the one in Wichita. Going to Kansas City was worth it 10 times over.

Our trip to Kansas City was really fun. It's different when you see the organs in real life compared to just diagrams in the book. You get an idea of what they actually do and how big they are. It was also interesting because we had been learning about this stuff all year, so most of us knew a lot about the museum. They have an exhibit there where they show all the veins and arteries in the arm and other body parts, it was really cool seeing that. The 8 hour bus ride was defiantly worth the 1 hour that we were in the museum.
