Day at the Mashantucket Pequot Museum

Last weekend we spent the day at one of our favorite museums, the Mashantucket Pequot Museum & Research Center.  Housed on the South Eastern Connecticut Mashantucket tribal land next to the famed Foxwoods Casino, the museum contains a stunning collection of "multi-sensory dioramas and exhibits of eastern woodland and Mashantucket Pequot life", with detailed videos on everything from cooking traditional dishes to making dug-out canoes.
