A Visit to the Pacific Pinball Musuem


I got to visit the Pacific Pinball Museum in Alameda and it was like heaven. I love pinball and it was amazing to see and play all these amazing games for a low price at the door:
















They even had a jukebox:

I don't really like putting myself on here but here is a boy and his pinball:


If you are in the area and get a chance, check it out some pinball

    Ohh.. pinball machines. I remember playing on them when I was a kid. It's really not easy to manipulate those machines.

    Forget any of the apps and downloads, pinball is a real game of skill!! I broke one once--had just put about $5 of coins in and the first hit got the ball stuck in a bumper!

    Sounds and looks like a place that we very much would enjoy, we love to take a look into the past specially if we can find some working Machines to go along with the experience.

    Have a wonderful rest of the week.
