I started this blog with one daughter, kept it up with the other, to spend time together doing something we enjoyed.
However, things change and people evolve. My daughters are older, busier, and not as interested in writing.
From now on this blog will be mostly mom with occasional contributions from my daughters and maybe even my husband.
Nothing else will change. We'll still focus on sharing fun places to go, fun things to do, and more, and we would  still love to hear your views too

Where-To-Go Wednesday - Ripley's Believe It or Not Atlantic City


What:
Ripley's  Believe It or Not Atlantic City 

Where: 1441 Boardwalk
              Atlantic City, NJ

Who: all ages:



Me - Ripley's Atlantic City was fun. It is not as big as the one in New York City, but it is still interesting to visit. There were some interactive things but they were mostly things you had to read and guess the answer. It wasn't as interactive as the one in New York. There were a couple of fun games though. One you had to step on things on the ground to match the pattern.



There was a whole section of dollhouse rooms. They were incredibly detailed and very fancy. I really liked those. I would have loved to have a dollhouse like that when I was little and played with dolls. 



There was a piece of coal from the Titanic. There was a really really big tire. It was the world's largest tire.  There was one of Columbus' ships made out of matchsticks. There were lots of other works of art made out of crazy objects as well. 



There was water dripping into a barrel but the water didn't appear to be connected to anything so you couldn't tell where it was coming from. Also, it kept dripping but didn't fill the bucket. 



There were so many interesting things to see at Ripley's Atlantic City. It's a fascinating place to visit.



Mom - Ripley's Atlantic City is located right on the Boardwalk. It's a great place to visit if you want to see all kinds of unique and incredible things. Although it is not as big as the Ripley's in New York City which we previously visited, there are still over 400 amazing artifacts on display.



Some objects as the same as those in New York like Shrunken heads, a section of the Berlin Wall, and a tiny car. Others are unique to this location like a gypsy wagon, a New Jersey Devil skelton, and a gigantic tire.Both museums also have a large array of artworks made out of different household items. Ripley's Atlantic City's collection includes Julia Roberts face made out of candy, John Lennon's face made out of a car hood, and all of the Beatles made out of gum. There is also an entire picture painted using nail polish. It literally looks like a work of art that would hang in a museum. You would never know it was painted with nail polish. All in all, if you want to see the craziest most bizarre things you have ever seen Ripley's Atlanic City or any Ripley's is always worth a visit. 



And that's our view. For more information or to purchase tickets to Ripley's Atlantic City, visit www.ripleys.com/atlanticcit.
