Casa Loma Exhibit - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I was away visiting family so my husband made the trek to keep the children happy. I can pass on their reports.Son in particular claims it was awesome to see Glamdring as well as the other weapons and costumes, especially in the context of Casa Loma, which is designed in stone like a castle. There were a couple of recreated scenes--inside Bag End (with the Ring), the Gates of Moria, and Sarumon's torture room. Other props were presented in museum-like tables, and then there were pictures of scenes from the movie.Husband, who has not read the books, found it interesting while son, who is a big Tolkien fan, says it was really informative.Bethberry[ August 11, 2002: Message edited by: Bethberry ]
