This museum is awesome! We all had a blast! What made it even better is that everyone must have been watching the fireworks because the place was nearly empty! No waiting in lines for any of the exhibits!
Wonderworks is a hands on museum for just about any kid. We experience an earthquake, hurricane winds, pedaled a bicycle 360 degrees (upside downways!), laid down on a bed of needles, and the best was a virtual ride where we designed a roller coaster ride and then got to climb into this box with a tv screen and experience the ride! It turned all sorts of ways. Hubby doesn't do well with spinning. The ride did him in, but I personally have not had such uncontrolled laughing in a lonnnggg time!
Shortly after that Hubby headed again to the van to regain his composure and recover from the ride. How does one get sick on a virtual ride??? I guess he wasn't kidding when he said he "doesn't do spinning." Miss Kitty was a bit smarter than Dad. She put her foot down she was not doing the roller coaster ride and she held her ground. BooBoo and Bookster were a bit hesitant, but did the ride anyway. They both came out of the box with huge smiles.
Before heading to the van, Hubby gave the kids $5 each to spend in the arcade. That lasted about 5 minutes, so we wrapped up the evening in the gift shop where Bookster and BooBoo picked up some trick chewing gum to "get" dad.
It was after midnight when we got back to the cabin. Too late for the hot tub. We were all too tired for that anyway. The next day we would be heading home. |
