So if you were thinking this is a walk-around and see what is in here kind of museum you are totally WRONG! The city museum is basically a huge jungle gym for adults. (There are kid sections to) but basically the whole point of this place is to explore and crawl through tunnels and go down slides. There are so many slides and if you want to get some speed you have to wear basketball shorts. Miranda and I would have competitions to see who could go the farthest when coming off of a slide and I won hands down every time. I even ran into a couple walls because I was going so fast! There was so much to go do and see. But one of my favorites was the 10-Story slide. I was going so fast down that and of course it just circles the whole time that when I got to the bottom I was so dizzy. It was a lot of fun. The climb up the 160+ stairs is the real but kicker though.
But as you can see there is a lot an outdoor section and a ball pit. There are more and more slides and overall it is just an amazing place. If I remember my info correctly it was a project of a bunch of architect students. But basically it is this huge warehouse looking building but they really made it into something.
I do have to mention this.. When my friend Miranda comes with her husband Trevor to the City Museum they like to hide in certain spots and scare people as they are walking by. So we had to do that. I think I really need to work on my scare techniques because well I scared them but they though I sounded like a dog..... Quite comical! These pics are only a fraction of what you can see and climb on at the city museum. Please go if you ever get the chance!
looks like your kind of place!! I totally wanna go!!
