The Star Trek Experience

The reason we chose to visit Ticonderoga was to take the 1 hour tour of "The Star Trek Experience". Now I want to make something clear: We like Star Trek. We don't watch it at every possible opportunity but we do enjoy it if we happen to come upon it on television. It sounded like an interesting thing to do since we were familiar with the show. That being said I did purchase a captain's shirt for Rick and I did make a couple of Tribbles to bring with us. "The Trouble With Tribbles" was aired a week before we were to leave so I thought it would be fun to brig a couple of them with us. While both of us would hardly be described a geeks it was great fun getting into the series by dressing up and having Tribbles.

We had no idea what to expect for the tour. Maybe like a little museum where you walked through? I really expected to see some of the fake boulders that were in many of the episodes and maybe a villain hiding behind them.  We could not have been more wrong. The set was all about The Enterprise and what it looked like on TV. I took about 130 pictures on the tour. Those were the keepers. I will not be sharing all of them here so that if anyone cares to go on this tour they can discover all of the wonders for themselves.

We were greeted right inside the doors by a couple of creatures and Rick made friends with them quickly.

In the reception area we were greeted by 2 familiar figures.

The first room we visited was the Transporter Room

Where shall I beam you to dear?

I was at the console ready to beam him anywhere.

We went down the hall....

.....and visited Sick Bay

From there we visited the Captain's quarters ans Spok's quarters

From there we traveled to Engineering

And finally.....the Bridge

Again, these are just the hi-lites. There is so much more to see. If you get the chance, I highly recommend visiting this set. It is less than a 4 hour drive from the Prescott area. There seems to b lots of museums and other attractions in the area so you could stay for a day or 2.

Stand by for more pictures of us and our Tribbles at the Star Trek set.
