Leonardo da Vinci

Visiting the Leonardo da Vinci Museum opened my mind to how many things Leonardo thought about and invented. So often we are only told about his flying machines, but his notes contained so much more! I appreciated how many of the notes were built in small models and displayed. My favorite were the interactive ones such as the quarter circle anemometer and hygrometer for testing wind speed and humidity respectively. While we are always told of his dream of flying, the inventions he tried to make flying possible (such as observing windspeed) are passed over.
