The Intrepid Sea-Air-Space Museum is open again after some renovations from October 2006 to October 2008. I've been to that museum several times and would visit again in the near future. I always have a good time there!
There is much to see in this one of a kind museum. Adults and children alike will enjoy hours of fun and learn a thing or two about Sea, Air and Space. There is nothing like going to a museum that floats on a river and getting on the tarmac of a war ship with numerous air planes on the top deck.
You can watch, read and listen to multimedia all about the displays and its history. There are tours of specific areas as well, like the submarine quarters. You can get inside of a submarine and the guide will show you what life is like as a crew member.
You can read more about the museum on Wikipedia or on the Museum's website. Or better yet, go visit the museum!
