This family's experience:

Activities: We went to K21, and the kids were excited to go to IN ORBIT. This is a huge, walk-on net installation by Tomás Saraceno under the glass dome

Highlights: The kids felt like Spiderman on the net! The first steps were very wobbly. We took some pictures with the small visitors beneath us. It was a very cool experience ✨
