We had a lot of fun.. I'm not sure who had more fun me or my baby.. the only thing I didn't like is I paid extra for suvionors that we never received, coat check and no one took our coats. I was a little disappointed about that.

We went to this location on Easter, although it was super busy and there were people everywhere the environment was super clean. Everything was fun. Everything was organized great place to visit and definitely worth the hour 30 minute ride..
