Visit one-hundred museums

This old lighthouse and museum was really interesting! We climbed 203 steps to the top and were rewarded with a great view of Daytona Beach. This lighthouse had all the original buildings from the turn of the century. The lighthouse keepers and their families lived at the site.
I had never climbed a lighthouse before.

Wow, this was an amazing museum! I so very much enjoyed our visit there on our trip to San Francisco last week. It was especially great because The Boy (Age 17 now) went with me and liked it too. (Don’t think he has willingly agreed to go to a musuem for about ten years! and he acted just like when he was little, he had to push all the buttons, etc.)

Anyway, this museum is absolutely huge! We were there for about three hours and only got to see the Rainforest exhibit, and part of the aquarium. Incredible, both of them! Highly recommend this museum if you are in the area.

What a cute museum! It is housed in an old lighthouse. Quite small inside, but lots of vintage surfboards and pictures. Only open Thusdays to Mondays, though.

I visited this museum a couple years ago while visiting my husband’s family in New Jersey.

I thought it was so interesting, because there were a lot of exhibits about the Eastern Indians. having grown up in Colorado, I had never learned much about these Indians. Everybody likes to make fun of New Jersey (even my husband, who was born there) but it was very interesting place to visit!

Yes, this is the museum at Death Valley National Monument. Mostly it contains artifacts from the early pioneers who were unlucky enough to have their wagons break down in the Death Valley area.

I really enjoyed this museum, because my great-grandparents worked for the Union Pacific railroad, and they actually lived in a railroad car in Owenyo, California for a while in the 1920s. Can you imagine what it must have been like to live in a railroad car in the desert??

I love this place. I loved it when I was little, and I liked taking my kids there too. About fifteen years ago, they put in a new exhibit about dinosaurs with animated dinosaurs. It is really amazing!

This is another museum that I have been lucky enough to visit twice. Once while I was visiting New York City on spring break in college, and again last year. The building’s architecture is amazing, and the exhibits that I saw were absolutely breathtaking!

I have visited this museum two times….once when I was a teenager and then again with my boys. Both of my visits there were some of the most memorable museum exhibits ever!

On my most recent trip, which was in 2000, my favorite was the actual submarine. (I think it was the favorite of the kids, too!) They have an actual submarine there that you can walk through. It is amazing!

I’m going to to start this by listing the museums that I have already visited, along with some of my memories from those visits.

I wonder if I have already visited one hundred museums? I sort of doubt it!
