| - Adult Swim at the Museum was fantastic!
Thinking about going to Adult Swim? I would stop thinking and start doing. Try to get there early so you can experience it all.
From the moment you walk in, you are overwhelmed with how many things you can do and experience. We got there about 15 minutes after it started and it was already bustling with activity.
We started at the top and worked our way down. I was surprised how large the garden was. It spans the whole the roof. My recommendation? Do not wear heels. There are three flights of stairs to climb. Someone said there was an elevator but I thought it would be no big deal. False, they make you work for it. The roof top is amazing. It has tall glass barriers so you have an amazing view of the lake. I have never experienced Madison like I did from the crow's nest they have up there. There is a little house up there with animals. They have turtles, snakes AND CHICKENS!! Oh and pigeons. You can feed chickens! They are sooo big!
I wish I had a child because this floor alone made me want to stay at the museum all night. There was a movie set-up that was happening later. I got really involved with the rest of the activities that I forgot. However, it was a great mini-theater and would have liked to go up there.
Now the second floor...there were numerous things to touch and play with. They had a presenter explaining nano-technology. There were experiments going on as well. Unfortunately, when we got there, they were not ready. And when we came back thirty minutes later, the line was monstrously long. It looked amazing but we wanted to do downstairs and see the Blue Monkey sideshow.
Too many things to do! We went into the dark room. It was amazing! As a kid, I know I would have never left that area! Take a picture and your shadow stays?! It was right out of Peter Pan. We constructed, ran on the hamster wheel (which is hung over the side of the catwalk on the second floor) and slid down the slide to watch the side show.
Now the sideshow was not exactly my cup of tea. Most of the people who I was surrounded by were definitely loving it. I am just not into hooks going into body parts and then carrying large weights. The juggling was amazing. And to be honest, my husband loved the man who held a bowling ball by a hook that went through his tongue. It just was not my thing.
Overall, I would recommend going to this event. It was such a fun Friday night. It is nice to forget your age and just have fun. OH!!! I forgot one more thing. Beer! They have a bar. So you can enjoy a nice spotted cow while building with legos.
