I wanted to mention two new attractions opening in 2010. I'm really excited about them both.
Sea Life Aquarium: Opening "by June" at the Arizona Mills Mall in Tempe, this aquarium will feature 5,000 sea creatures in a 165,000 gallon tank. Visitors walk through a 360-degree tunnel, encircled by the tank and its marine life. There will also be more than 30 aquarium tanks, tide pools and replicas of a sunken ship and dinosaur fossils. Ticket prices are yet to be determined but one-day tickets to the California aquarium are $18.95 for adults and $11.95 for children.
Musical Instrument Museum: This one-of-a-kind museum in the north Phoenix is scheduled to open April 24, 2010. It will display as many as 5,000 popular and indigenous instruments representing every country in the world. From what I've heard, as you approach a display, you will be able to hear the instrument playing. Very cool! Of course, they also plan to hold frequent performances and demonstrations of instrument making. Can't wait!
