    there is nothing overpriced about it really, they need money for all the things that they provide, so much like Disneyland and every other carnival or fest in the world, you should expect the food to be expensive, but the trip itself and the place is just so fantastic they really have something for everyone, its too bad the only memory you have of this place is how expensive the food was

    Gavin, who cares about CO2. Are you going to tell us that all plants need to be killed off to protect us? Remember photosynthesis in botany class? You guys all try to scare the people into thinking they need to pass laws and be taxed to do absolutely nothing to “save us”. Also, you are not credible and definitely not for the people based on your public speaking and continuous ignorance of news reporters and the very people who want to share their concerns.

    I finally got to visit the museum last weekend, and it actually surpasses the hype.

    It’s interesting to see all the talent and effort that went into creating it. Good video.
