From lightly feeling the skins in the indian hut at the beginning to moving straight into the recovered treasures...The jewelry pieces, gold bars, coins, pottery and lifting the silver bar...The conquistador helmets and weapons, to Flagler's model city and train set...Specially watching the different buildings light up by pressing the buttons...Truly enjoyable "Hands On" experience...Well worth an hour...Thank you for putting it together...
