World War I museum

I think this WW I museum is the only one in the nation but I might be wrong. It looks like nothing but a big bunker from the outside with a 250 foot liberty tower that you can ride up. We were so surprised when we walked in. It is top notch!! and so well done. We spent awhile here as it was so impressive. They had large examples of German, French and British trenches and a large British bunker. The uniforms and weapons displays were many! and we saw two different movies. WOW! is all I can say. Don't miss this if you are ever in KC. The picture of M & P is in the little elevator to the top of the tower, overlooking KC. On the ground is the old Union Station.. built in model of Central Station, it is huge, and then the gold dorm church. We also went to the public museum at the Federal Reserve Building, the boys were highly impressed with the security we had to go through just to get in and then we saw the money room and the boys went crazy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Money Money everywhere, they were wishing they had some of it :) I spent about an hour in the Hallmark Museum, the Halls started their business here and the 4th generation is now President. The boys were at the mall. This was really really really nice... I would recommend this, too. It is the history of the business not just displays of greeting cards! I really enjoyed this and did not know that Hallmark owns Crayola... since 1984. I believe they may own "Shoebox", it wasn't quite clear but it appeared so. They actually have their hands in lots of products. They had a display on all the artists that Hallmark has used over the years, Winston Churchhill for one, can you believe it!! For the 100 year anniversay, they had employees decorate crowns... each one personal and unique, they had some of these on display. You can tell the employees are well treated, much mention of their love of the company. We ate at La Bodegas last evening for TAPAS... oh man were they tasty, Peter ordered meatballs (of course!) with a brown sauce (not gravy). Max ordered a hot puffy pastry filled with leaks, potatoes, cheese and basil...yum! and I had the goat cheese with red sauce served with crositini...lovely. The boys were still hungry when we were done, you know the portion size was sample only! so they got a burger when we were done...cute!
