OMSI

1945 SE Water Avenue/800.955.6674

HOURS OF OPERATION: 0930 - 1900/PARKING: Parking lot/PRICE: &/&& 


REVIEW: 
OMSI is a great way for kids and adults of all ages to enjoy some fun, while learning about science.Even though I am an adult, I find that people my age (30) still enjoy this museum. This is a great place for parents to take their children as well. There are two sides. One is more interactive (more things for little hands) and the other has more exhibits. They generally have a new, touring exhibit, every few months. Well worth the time and money! Take note that at times, the museum can be packed and loud. If you don't like children, stay away. But if you like science, then you will love OMSI!

Wunderland

Wunderland/3451 SE Belmont St/971.373.8990

HOURS OF OPERATION: 1100 - 24000/CLEANLINESS: Decent/PARKING:Street parking/STAFF: Friendly

REVIEW: 
Wunderland (or the nickel arcade, as well call it) is a fun place for the entire family. It hosts a variety of arcade games for nickels. There are numerous games where you can play for tickets in which you can turn in for prizes at the end of the night. There is a small entrance fee for a few dollars, but an entire family can easily go have some fun for under $25. And if playing games isn't everyone's thing, there is also a small movie theater attached for those who prefer a movie instead. Our favorite is the one at the address listed above, but other locations include Beaverton, Gresham, Milwaukie, Salem, and Vancouver. Please note that not all locations include a movie theater inside.
