Ripley's Believe it or Not

After the Titanic we went over to tour the Ripleys Believe it or Not Museum. I was kinda iffy on this, because I thought it would be a lot of stupid stuff, but it was awesome. As many of you know, the outside of the building looks as if an earthquake had struck it, well so does the inside. It looks like the building has been busted in half all throughout the museum.

As we first walked in there was some artifacts from other country's. Stuff like odd attire commonly worn or unusual machinery they use, but as you go further through you come to a magic room. You had to guess how many squares were in a picture, try to roll your toungue in a mirror (which turns out to be a two way mirror), try to grab a gem, and guess answers to riddles. This was cool, but I was no good at it. Finally something James could beat me at :)

Then you walk into a room with a Limo and in the trunk of this car was a heart shaped jacuzzi. Also in this room was the laws of gravity bowl and the sign says, drop a coin in this bowl and see what happens. What happens? It falls, straight down the hole and into the underneath. Oops, lost a penny :)
After that came the cool stuff (to me). The had sculptures made of match sticks, camel bone, shredded money, and anything else you could imagine. There was a life size Volkswagon Beetle carved completly out of wood and a ship made out of thousands of matchsticks. It is cool to see, but it makes you wonder how much time people actually have on their hands :)

Of course they had the biggest ball of yarn, but they also had things like insect paintings (real insects that were painted), clothes that were made to fit fleas (believe it or not), and a two headed cow (fake, but based of a real one). I would have to say, it turned out to be pretty cool :)
