Thread: Petersen Automotive Museum, WHOA!

  1. #1

    Lightbulb Petersen Automotive Museum, WHOA!

    I swear. My son and I were hanging out in the parking garage before going into the museum because there was so much awesome stuff to see!
    And then when we bought our tickets, we asked if the inside was better than the garage, because that was pretty darned good!
    We were told it was MUCH better.

    Oh! That was true.

    Me and my boy were hyperventilating with excitement.
    Around each turn or just a little further was something we wanted to love and squeeze and get inside of and drive off into the night.
    We actually simultaneously starting saying, "I can't take anymore!"
    It was just THAT good of a museum for car people.
    About 35% done seeing the place, we agreed that we needed to decompress.
    So we went to the gift shop, bought some diecast, then went to eat in the Johnny Rockets right there in the lobby.
    We completed the museum after that much-needed break.

    It was an incredible time.
    We're going back.
    Tomorrow!!!
    LOL

    Too many toys. Not enough space!
