For those of you located within traveling distance to Philadelphia, you may want to visit the Franklin Institute for their new Narnia Exhibition, particularly if you have children or grandchildren.  Danielle Lipp, from Newsweek.com’s Budget Travel section, describes it:

The 10,000-square-foot interactive exhibit features scene displays, creatures, props, and costumes from both movies, while also explaining the science and natural history behind the fantasy world. Guests enter in a re-creation of author C.S. Lewis’s study and then step through a wardrobe to find themselves in a wintry Narnia scene, complete with wind and falling snow…. The displays—supported by input from NASA and California Institute of Technology scientists—are especially designed to allow kids to question the validity of the fantastical elements in the movies: Can animals communicate with humans? Can a waterfall really freeze? Can we manipulate the weather?
