Keeping Your Advantage: Terrain and You [Weds, 3rd Period]

[atreideslioness]

As promised last week, today's class met at the Causeway, where a portal deposited them at the Chicago Field Museum.

"Thanks to the wonders of portals and time travel, you have three hours here," Ghanima informed her students, as she gave everyone a small timer, a gift card good for either of the two restaurants, and information about the exhibits. "When your keychain beeps, you can come back here to take the portal to your next class. Otherwise, feel free to stay for the entire day, as I will be departing via portal when the museum closes."

"Blend in, take in the exhibits, learn how to be a tourist and learn about different cultures. Don't leave the museum campus, don't try to stay here overnight, and please don't do anything to get arrested by the local authorities."

The Field Museum!

Welcome to Chicago, and the Field Museum! Please survive the experience!

[OOC: Feel free to create your own sub-threads off this one, either with the name of the exhibit, if there's a particular one you're visiting, or just tag in with whatever fun you're having.]

Elsa had decided right off the bat to sort of steer clear of the dinosaur exhibits. The island had already shown her more than her fair share of those, still alive, back in the spring. So she mostly just wound up wandering until something caught her eye.

... Which was how Elsa wound of spending most of her time in the Hall of Gems. Partly because it was far, far quieter than any dinosaur exhibit, and partly because it was fascinating to see the way minerals built upon themselves to create icicles of sorts. She'd never really seen uncut gemstones before. They were fascinating.
