I managed another visit to MIM and talked K into visiting with me. We met at 11AM and toured Europe for about an hour then took a lunch break in the Cafe . I had the grilled sausage and K had a roast beef sandwich. Both were accompanied by a nice chilled Heineken. We returned to the second flour to tour Asia for two hours. I needed another break, so we went to the coffee shop for coffee and a cookie snack. We spent the "last hour" on a fast walking tour through the US and Canada, and then through Africa. Exhausted, we returned to the service desk to turn in our headset. The woman at the desk told us that we had to walk just down the hall to see the Hands On room and the "Visiting Artists" room. Promising that we would only quickly look, we took our headsets and journeyed down the hall.
What a wonderful surprise. String instruments, drums, things to shake and plink...all for our enjoyment.
Each section is nicely hidden, so as you move past a wall, your are delighted by the opportunity to play something else.
The guest artist room was filled with many delights. Here are a few photos of what was in the room. George Benson...
R. Carlos Nakai
Paul Simon...
And the guest musician of the day!
