Our new visiting exhibit, K'NEX: Building Thrill Rides, is here! It's still being set up, but starting Friday at 10am, it will be ready for you.

The question is: are you ready for it?

This looks pretty impressive right:

And then I tell you it's actually 6 feet tall! I can prove it. This is me, looking ridiculous:

6 foot Ferris wheel

I'm 5 feet, 3 inches. Much, much shorter than this model! You can see how fast it's whirling too. I can show you that as well. Here is a wee video I took yesterday:

I can't wait til they're done setting things up. I want to go play! You can check out some more pictures in the Flickr set, or come by tomorrow at 10am. If you're fast you might be able to get in free. The prairie dog is having a contest on their Facebook page, and you could win two free tickets! Deadline is 9am tomorrow, so hurry!

Stay curious,
Collette
