Highlights of the visit included eating lunch at the Three Broomsticks (we highly recommend the Butterbeer) and watching Rose as she was "chosen" to do the wand test in Olivander's Wand Shop. Only one child is chosen in a room of 20 or so, so this made the trip completely worthwhile for her! We also enjoyed the Dr. Seuss section of the park. Elanor and Rose had their pictures taken with the "real" Thing One and Thing Two from "The Cat in the Hat" while wearing their own Thing One and Thing Two t-shirts. We finished our trip with a daylong excursion to the Kennedy Space Center which included a simulated ride in a Space Shuttle. Mom and Dad were in heaven seeing all of the rockets from the NASA Space Program! The entire family agreed this was one of the best trips ever! Kim Jorgensen/Bennett Martin Public Library/Public Services Department An interesting situation: We have a graduate student who is spending several months in Lincoln; one of her primary stops is the Heritage Room to look at some of the Loren Eiseley information found here.
