Welcome to the New Year!
Have some Swiss yearning inside? There is Swissness everywhere in the U.S. In this case, inside Chicago’s Museum of Science and Industry where you’ll find the Swiss Jollyball, the world’s largest pinball machine. The countless bells, lights, and cleverly arranged movement triggered by the magic silver ball are enough to keep any mechanically-minded kid busy for a good while and also adults and babies seem to be mesmerized by the motion. Created as a travel advertisement for the Swiss Tourism Board, the Jollyball takes you on a tour of the Swiss countryside and tourism hot spots. It was created by Charles Morgan, a British jeweler living in Switzerland, using parts salvaged from the junkyard. Jolly Joy!
