Children's Museum

The kids and I went to the Cincinnati Children's Museum on Friday. A friend of mine, Angie Smorey works at the museum and was kind enough to comp us tickets.
In addition to the Children's Museum, we also visited the Museum of Natural Museum and Science. Below is a picture I took of a stalactite exhibit. The quality of the picture is not great, but perhaps you'll find that the exhibit looks like it could have been included in a Masters & Johnson report.
The museums are located in the old Union Terminal building. Although it still operates as a train station, there is little evidence of this during the day. My understanding is that all the trains run very late at night or in the very early morning hours.

The inside of the Union Terminal building looks magnificent. The building has a dome, and the inside is painted with a large mural. A few shots of the mural are below:
