OMSI

Now showing at OMSI is Da Vinci The Genius.

This show is fun and interesting. I was disappointed that not enough of the gadgets were interactive. They were cool to look at. The bike looked very uncomfortable to ride. The flight machines looked like birds. The Military machines were scary. The ball bearing and gear system were fascinating. What really piqued my interest was the information on his paintings. The layers, the pigments were exciting new information to me.

Also this weekend is the agate and mineral show.

They will be open Monday February 16, 2009 in honor of Presents day. Normally they are closed on Mondays.

Admission prices Adult $11, youth 3 to 13 and senior 63+ $9

Since I was a child, OMSI has been fun to visit on occassion in Portland. But I miss the days when it was located near Washington Park set in the green spot amongst all the trees.
