Step5263 | Oct 20, 2018

Yes, and it's worth every penny. I highly recommend this place if you are a I Love Lucy and Desi Arnez fan. This is a Great place to visit. The museum has beautiful pictures and memorabilia throughout the museum. The museum also has a stage setup from the I Love Lucy Show. It was awesome to see in person. This was one one the highlights of the museum. Everything was set up with great detailed about Lucy and Desi Arnaz. The best thing about the museum they let you take pictures inside of the museum. Also, right next door is a I Love Lucy gift shop which is awesome!!! I found some beautiful I Love Lucy t-shirts and I Love Lucy coffee mugs. The gift shop has a little something for everyone. I'm looking forward to taking my family and friend when they come over to visit me and my husband during the summer.
