I went back to Stratford-upon-Avon, I have no idea why it's named this, probably to differentiate itself from the other Stratford. But I digress.
I went back and decided to go to the Mechanical Art and Design Museum. Inside, I saw several interesting machines. Most of them were marble runs, but they were impressive in their complexity. Another thing I saw a predominance of were clocks, but clocks made out of legos, marble clocks that were surprisingly accurate and an intricate wooden clock made of over a hundred pieces that not only told time, but also date, including month. According to its description, it could go two days before needing to be rewound. Everything was just an amazing piece of design and imagination. In fact, I think I'll build my own marble run when I get back home!
