“A designated area in the lower West Wing and our first-aid room are available for guests seeking a quiet, private space.”
“special kits (which include noise-canceling headphones, fidget tools, picture-communication cards, and a KultureCity VIP lanyard) are available at the Information Desk.”
“Yes, you may leave the Aquarium and come back in.”
