Wow!
For a birthday treat for my grand-daughter and 2 of her friends we all went to Ripley's. We were not really sure what to expect but what a spectacular experience it turned out to be. From entering the venue with a giant inflatable man greeting us to the exit out of the revolving tunnel (which they had a great dance in), was a great time had by all.
Starting on the 5th floor and going down floor by floor there was just so much to see and learn. Seeing the model of The Titanic and London Bridge built painstakingly with toothpicks was very impressive.
The girls were fascinated at the bizarre animal defects, the shrunken heads and as for the man in the execution chair..... Hit that button at your peril. There was so much to see and we all had a great time. It will probably be one of the best history lessons any child and grown up could have, presented in such a way that the whole experience is just wonderful.
One slight criticism (sorry), I thought it would be a good idea if you had somewhere to buy and eat food.
