We be well into summer and have you any travel plans? Why not visit a museum...... especially a weird museum. Guarantee you (and your kiddos) will enjoy such a visit. Except for the one in Iceland.
*Mutter Museum in Philadelphia features anatomical specimens, including Einstein's brain and a cast of Chang and Eng, the famous Siamese Twins joined at the abdomen.
** International UFO Museum and Research Center in Roswell, NM, focuses on the 1947 Roswell UFO incident and alien lore.
** SPAM museum in Austin, MN is dedicated entirely to the history and culture of the canned meat product. Great gift shop.
** National Mustard Museum in Middleton, WI, displays over 5000 types of mustard from around the world.
** Pizza Brain Museum in Philadelphia showcases the world's pizza culture and pizzeria.
** Devil's Rope Museum in McLean, TV, explores the history of barbed wire.
** Museum of Salt & Pepper Shakers in Gatlinburg, TN, features thousands of sets of these.
** Lunchbox Museum in Columbus, GA, is the world's largest collected of lunchboxes featuring over 5000 vintage metal and plastic lunchboxes.
** Hammer Museum in Haines, AL, is dedicated to hammers; founded in 2002 it contains over 1400 hammers and related tools ranging from ancient times, through colonial days to the industrial age.
** Museum of Jurassic Technology in Los Angeles is a surreal institution blending fact and fiction.
** Probably not for children, the Penis Museum in Reykjavik, Iceland features "more than 200 penises and penile parts representing almost all Icelandic land and sea mammals." (Yes, hubby and I visited this museum in 2019 and it wasn't so bad.)
