"5"^^ . "YAYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Growing up I played with Barbie dolls. I have Barbie, Skipper, Kelly, Whitney (Stacie's friend), Ken, and Tommy. And also the kitchen, bathroom, pet shop, grocery store, and even a laundry room.\n\nThis Barbie Expo (the \"Barbie Museum\") is nothing like what I knew.\n\nIt's history and fashion of this world-famous icon. Barbie Expo is not the same doll I played with! \n\nBarbie of many different cultures, of celebrities and movies, in lots of wedding gowns. Barbie by high-end designers. Barbie in the most beautiful fabric I've ever seen.\n\nDo you know these Barbies? Princess of South Africa. Canadian Barbie. Goddess of Wisdom. Barbie of the Tango dance. Zombie bride Barbie. Thanksgiving Barbie. Diane von Furstenberg Barbie!!!\n\nJohnny Depp. He is a beautiful Barbie.\n\nThere are two Barbie dolls of Peru and I love them both.\n\nCan you believe the work they put into making the hair, the shoes, and the fabric? \n\nSeriously well done!!! I can't believe this is free! You can see every doll clearly. The display is bright. The walking space is wide. People love to crowd around but even so it wasn't annoying to navigate. I took a guy here because we finished class together. After maybe 800 Barbie dolls, he became quite tired. Still he finished walking through the entire expo with me. This means although the expo is huge with 1000+ dolls, it is small enough that even a guy would say, \"Alright fine, let's finish this at your pace.\"\n\nGo check it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!\n\nUPDATE: you know what would be even better???\n- if each doll has her birth date or year\n- to see the original hand-drawn designs and concepts\nWell if this happens, the expo probably wouldn't be free!"^^ .
