Voted Top Museum Wizard of Oz in Florida - Immersive Experience Like No Other - 2200 Plus Artifacts

On a hill, bit, bit, bit, bit, bit, bitty, dee. Alright, today, we just got off a cruise ship. We wanted to come to this place because the manager yelled at us on one of our videos that we didn't put this in our favorites in Port Canaveral. How many times have you watched the movie do you think? I didn't, I watched only two times, but I read books. Oh, okay. I've never read the book. So, we're here. The Wizard of Oz Museum. And we're going to give you a complete tour of this because I can't wait to see inside. Are you ready? Yeah, I'm excited. It's going to be fun. Make sure you...

Now, if you want to book this tour, make sure you're checking out my Viator page under the Florida section. I'll have a link in the description. But let me tell you, this museum has something for everybody. And do not miss the end of this video for their immersive section where they've got this room and you're going to see it here. This museum is not only about the Wizard of Oz, but there's so much more. There's a space section that goes in with the Cape Canaveral theme. And if you come in by cruise ship like we did, you can Uber over here. It's only like two and a half to three miles from the cruise port. Let's just get into this video, Todd. The star of today's show. Look at all these Wizard of Oz books. And there's the latest, Wicked. We're at the beginning here where you get to watch a video. What to expect in here. It's very cool. Lots of memorabilia in here. Check out the bathroom here. This is the bathroom. The Wizard of Oz. Poppies. There's the Wicked Witch. I love this little touch. All right. We're in the museum here and you can see each cabinet you go to. You can scan it and it will tell you a story of everything that's in here. Between these two is a copy of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz from 1900. What you're seeing is the oldest known copy of the book. It's really amazing the details that the narration gives you. It's just, it's really a great way to learn about everything. And this says it all. Voted number one children's museum in the United States by TripAdvisor. And you can even take your picture with the characters. Look at this. There's Dorothy the Lion, Tin Man, Scarecrow, and the Good Witch. All right. There's the Certificate of Authenticity of the Ruby Slippers. Now believe it or not, I didn't realize there was this many books on The Wizard of Oz. They go through every detail of every book in this museum. And this is interactive as well. The first room in here is all kinds of different memorabilia. Look at all this stuff. This is just the first part of this museum. It's ranked, I think he said number 23 out of 35,000 things to do in Florida. Who remembers these? Who remembers running to the room when these things came out flying? And then over here, you got the Wicked Witch of the West. And I tell you, the gentleman, the owner we just got to talk to has put a great museum. Look at this up here. It's the Gloves of the Cowardly Lion. I tell you, I would love to have this collection. This is so cool. And here is the original 1939 Wizard of Oz Winky Guard Spear Prop. I love where they showed the scenes here where this was used as well. I know some of you've got these. I've actually seen these in person. They got them in the museum. Here's an original coat by Judy Garland. You can see her initials embroidered into that. And you can actually see her where she was wearing this dress. All right, we got kids. They got a Munchkinland in here. Let's see what this is all about. Oh, that's cool. Munchkinland, and they're showing some movies. Look at the little chairs with all the characters. In front of Emerald City. All right, this is a must. Right here is one of Dorothy's dress actually used in the movie. This just goes to show you the detail here, how this immersive museum works. They actually got games in here for the kids, as you'll see reading this. But this guy here is one of the flying monkeys. All right, we just scanned this coat here. This is the original townsman outfit from The Wizard of Oz. And let me tell you, there's a lot of people in this place right now. This is one of the best things to do when you're visiting Port Canaveral, Cape Canaveral. Coming in a cruise ship, that's what we did. That's where we're here. It's time to get immersed. All right, this is the immersive experience. I think it's getting ready to start. All right, I think we're in the house. There's the tornado. Now, let me tell you something about this immersive experience. I think he said it's 200 square feet in there. Don't quote me on that. But they show space stuff to bring in Kennedy Space Center that is nearby here. They do a lot of art stuff. Van Gogh. Beautiful, beautiful little room. It's an experience in itself. You got to come see this place. It is fabulous. And then you get swept away by the Wizard of Oz. And just look at the details on the floor. Incredible. But what I find interesting is right here. It's from the lining of the witch's hat. She is no more. Here's a movie replica. I guess you can buy these there. That thing's $2,000. Very nice gift store here. It's all for sale. And a special thanks to the owner who gave us a tour of behind the scenes and talked us into coming back here to put this museum on the top things to do when you're visiting or vacationing in Florida. All right, I think our time has ran out here. I hope you liked this tour. Until next time, go watch this movie.
