Madame Toussaud


We just went to Madame Toussaud's Wax Museum. It was neat you could take photos w/the figures. they had more then listed online.

Inside there was a short video about the history and making of the wax figures, then you enter the exhibits. There are a lot of presidents spread throughout the museum exhibits, it is obvious that they choose the figured based on the locations though as this one was very heavily populated with political figures. You could sit with Lincoln in his theater booth and shake hands with George Washington, have your photo taken with the Obama's and even sit in the Oval Office for a picture.

The interactive exhibits even continued into the bathrooms as there were fake hats on the sinks so you appeared to have on a silly hat as you washed you hands, and the stalls had "singer" "actress" and other designations on the door, with trivia inside the stalls which could be answered by reading the plaques by the displays inside the museum!
