Synopsis Part 2

Ally meets an Ornithomimus (c)1998 IMAX   23KFinding herself in a strangely lush environment, Ally is awestruck by a herd of thirsty Hadrosaurs drinking at a glacial lake. Continuing to explore, Ally thinks she has found her way back to the modern day museum when suddenly the Deinonychus dinosaurs in a painting by Charles Knight (Tuck Milligan) jump to life. But this time, the famous 1930's era dinosaur illustrator himself appears in front of Ally and she gets an easel-side audience with Knight, and the opportunity to ask and see how he created his imaginative renderings.

Ally's world seems to shift again when she finds herself in the early 1910's on a paleontology exploration with Barnum Brown (Laurie Murdoch), the most famous bone hunter in history. Finally on a real dig, Ally gets to try out her theories about dinosaur evolution and extinction with Brown himself. But just when it seems she is getting closer to her own time, Ally finds herself once again hurtled back millions of years and surrounded by the Jungle like flora of the Cretaceous period.

A Pteranadon flies overhead (c) 1998 IMAX  28KAlly is spellbound as Pteranodon flies overhead.
