Man, I love this place. My wife, daughter and I took friends to visit on the last weekend the Pompeii exhibit was around. We arrived earlier and visited some of the other exhibits while we waited for our scheduled Pompeii entry.
Now this isn't my first time visiting but for a few of the others, it was. We took our time visiting each floor and allowing my toddler to really take in the fun, kid friendly items (she really liked going into the stomach display and being pooped out).
What really stole the show though was Pompeii. After viewing a short video we were ushered in to view real items from the city and it was awesome inspiring. Coupled with the videos and music, there was staff waking around in costume to provide extra details of the lost cities life.
All in all it was a wonderful stop and I can't wait to go back and see another special collection or event!
