I did not even mention the line for the biosphere thing. Admission is indeed high, so I don't blame families for taking advantage of the free day. The museum has been enormously successful since it re-opened, so I am not totally surprised that it was busy on a regular day in May. I have been to one of their adult-oriented after hours events, & that was just as crowded.Axel Feldheimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12517904558156089265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17709835.post-58674325217285662212010-02-18T11:55:17.412-08:002010-02-18T11:55:17.412-08:00People on vacation are so patient.

It almost feels like going to Disneyland where you have to line up for everything after you get in.y2knoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17709835.post-50427311526681961752010-02-18T10:24:21.973-08:002010-02-18T10:24:21.973-08:00Well, why didn't you tell me about that zip co...Well, why didn't you tell me about that zip code trick before? I see that I can go a weekend in June & a weekend in October based on my zip code. I will just have to make sure that my museum companion is also a neighbor.Axel Feldheimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12517904558156089265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17709835.post-88929686036109541892010-02-18T01:03:41.768-08:002010-02-18T01:03:41.768-08:00haven't they done the 'free by zip code...haven't they done the 'free by zip code' thing to reduce the masses of people standing in line?<br /><br />I guess that's annoying if your museum companion lives in another zip code though...Immanuel Gilenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04422265000447253768noreply@blogger.com
