Wonder Works

So we bought tickets to the Outta Control Magic Dinner Show and decided rather than wait all day to go to it we would visit Wonder Works and all its rides. Wow was this a trip; we decided to take it slow and not miss anything, and thats probably the best advice you'll get from this place. The first floor is only accessible from a strange tunnel that makes you feel like your falling off because the walls rotate. Then you find yourself in a room that lets you experience natural disasters on a much smaller scale. We sat in a booth as it shook violently just like an earthquake, and then we stood in a room while we were thrust into high speed winds like a tornado. Then we watched gravity defying water drip upwards in a broken tube and then even pause midair! Next we went upstairs to see a room full of random and interesting devices. We threw baseballs to see how fast we could throw, my best was only 50MPH, nothing compared to the 90MPH champion throws. We then went to an area full of massive bubble making devices. Where we made bubbles you could fit people in and long stringy ones you could wrap around you if they didnt pop! We tested pully systems and lifted ourselves into the air with ease, we even played air hockey with our hands on a massive screen. We then went to a room with flight simuators and sound booths. The Sound Booth was an interesting experience in a haunted house where they explained how having to ears adds to our daily life! Then we entered the flight simulators where we flew upside down and did flips in a small pod, it was liek a rollercoaster without moving! Next we went to the arcade and played laser tag, where you shoot each other with laser pointers to rack up points. Then we went downstairs to the Outta Control Magic Dinner Show where we were served unlimited amounts of popcorn, salad and pizza! The show was absolutely hilarious, the entire comedy sketches and stand up comedy made the show! While doing some amazing tricks you will find yourself laughing and clapping the entire show. If your gonna do a dinner show this is the one.
