Bonnet House Bonnet House Review

<font color=maroon> <b>Bonnet House</b>
<font color=maroon><b>Bonnet House</b> is the legacy of Frederic Clay Bartlett's and visions talent which translated his years of exposure to the arts and architecture of Europe into a native Floridian house. Built in 1920,Bonnet House reflects Mr Bartlett's personal interpretation of a plantation house and was designed to promote a gracious indoor-outdoor lifestyle filtered by coastal breezes from the Atlantic Ocean and to express his sense of whimsey with decorative delight. The 35 acre oasis reflects Mr Bartlett's love of beauty and nature preserved for us to partake and enjoy. Come enjoy the serene lifestyle of the 1930's while relaxing and absorbing this wonderful paradise. Bonnet House, named after the yellow water lily that once grew in the property's marshland, is a work of art begging for your presence.

As you can see by this picture, it is a lost paradise in a modern world!!

IMAX Theater Blockbuster IMAX Review

<font color=maroon><b>IMAX Theater at the Museum of Discovery & Science</b>
<font color=maroon>The $3 million 3-D Blockbuster IMAX Theater at the Museum of Discovery & Science, is the highest attended ticketed museum in Florida. Like all IMAX's I have been to, this one is superb!! It is a treasure of exhibits that challenge, educate and delight youngsters, built to promote the understanding and appreciation of science in children and adults. It achieves this through entertaining interaction with educational exhibits, programs and films, and with the Discovery Center opened in 1999. Designed for toddlers and pre-schoolers, the Discovery Center is a place for them to meet new friends and have fun while developing motor skills and learning basic science
