Was in Fort Myers, Florida with a bunch of high school students on a short mission trip. One evening we went to the Imaginiarium. We walked in to the gift shop right away and then headed into the museum. They have quite a few exhibits and it was a lot more interesting than the students had originally thought. For the... More

Despite what you might have heard, it does rain in Florida sometimes, and if your'e staying in (say) Fort Myers Beach and have some bored kids with an intellectual bent this one might be for you. I must admit, when my wife and I went to check it out, out of curiosity, we were not overwhelmed -- but then we... More
