Spectacular Display of Earth's Treasures
We attend the the Main Event every year and have never been less than dazzled by the offerings and displays found there. If you have any interest in the earth sciences, you will find this show to be most worthwhile.
Just go to see.
I know that this show has only expensive merchandise, but these are worth to see and to expand your knowledge. When I visited here last year, the food court, the parking lot and the entrance were crowded all the time. You have to wait in a long line to pay your admission fee at the entrance.
