点评:I visited this museum quite a few times as a child and it was one of my favourites. I’ve also visited a few times since my son was born.
When visiting within school holidays we have been glad to have booked the extra exhibitions including two versions of Operation Ouch and Power Up, which have been brilliant and worth paying for. This is mainly due to how busy the free parts of the museum get especially on the first floor. There are lots of fun experiments to do there, but on the Friday of February half term there were long waits for most of them. I did hear a member of staff saying that it was fully booked.
I have to say that it was the busiest that we had ever seen it. Even compared to other half term days that we have visited.
The construction works didn’t affect our visit and I’m looking forward to see the museum once the works are finished. I do however miss the air and space hall.
We planned to eat in the cafe, but with a long queue, no available tables and the City Centre location we went elsewhere for lunch.
Luckily we still managed to do some of the free activities and spent most of our time at Operation Ouch! Brains, Bogies and You and Power Up, which we really enjoyed. We loved the large eye and a lot of the other fun exhibits in Operation Ouch and the massive selection of games and consoles including a Sega Master System and a PlayStation 5. It was such a fun day.
Hopefully we won’t book such a busy day next time.
翻译:我小时候去过这个博物馆好几次,它是我最喜欢的博物馆之一。自从我儿子出生后,我也去过几次。
在学校假期参观时,我们很高兴预订了额外的展览,包括两个版本的 Operation Ouch 和 Power Up,这些展览非常精彩,值得花钱去观看。这主要是因为博物馆的免费部分非常繁忙,尤其是一楼。那里有很多有趣的实验可以做,但在二月期中周五,大多数实验都需要等待很长时间。我确实听到一位工作人员说它已经订满了。
我不得不说这是我们见过的最繁忙的一次。甚至与我们参观过的其他期中日相比也是如此。
施工没有影响我们的参观,我很期待在施工完成后参观博物馆。不过,我确实很想念航空航天大厅。
我们计划在咖啡馆吃饭,但由于排队很长,没有空位,而且位于市中心,所以我们去了其他地方吃午饭。
幸运的是,我们仍然设法参加了一些免费活动,并将大部分时间花在了 Operation Ouch! Brains, Bogies and You 和 Power Up 上,我们真的很喜欢。我们喜欢 Operation Ouch 中的大眼睛和许多其他有趣的展品,以及包括 Sega Master System 和 PlayStation 5 在内的大量游戏和游戏机。这是如此有趣的一天。
希望我们下次不要预订这么忙的一天。
