Karpeles

Yesterday in my genetics class a man was talking about the Karpeles museum. He said right now they have on display the handwritten notes of Charles Darwin.

Here is a note he wrote while onboard the HMS Beagle for five years. They had another twenty pages of his notes on display.

The docent said this was the 100th anniversary of the start of the company. These are original drawings.


The Karpeles museum also has some ships on display.




Lastly here is some music that Mozart wrote. They also had music from Wagner but I didn't take a picture of that. In my class on Ukraine and the Cossacks, I learned that Hitler loved Wagner. And the Wagner group that wages war for Russia in the Ukraine, Syria, Africa and Venezuela is named for the composer.
