The Marvel Experience

This year, for Christmas, we gave the girls tickets to The Marvel Experience in Scottsdale. We watch Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. together as a family every week, so this little adventure sounded right up our alley. Boy, was it ever! We had so much fun. The idea of the experience is that you will, "Join forces with Marvel's mightiest heroes on a mission to save the planet. The Marvel Experience is a first of it's kind attraction that covers over two acres and encompasses seven colossal domes. As S.H.I.E.L.D.'s newest recruit, you'll swing with Spiderman, smash with Hulk, and fly with Iron Man in next generation hyper-reality as you prepare to face the forces of Hydra."

Getting pounds from Black Widow

And a pat on the back from Nick Fury

Embracing her inner geek. In the dark, her shirt glows with the Hydra symbol imbedded in the S.H.I.E.L.D. symbol

Paige actually got 4th place overall!

Hulking OUT!!!

After the main dome, we boarded a Quinjet and headed into a briefing for the recruits and then onto a 4D ride for the final battle. We had so much fun that I even bought the souvenir picture, which is now also the desktop on my computer. Another awesome HaggisFam adventure in the books!
