As an adult, what seemingly childish things do you get excited about? (lemmy.world)

I love bridges. If I see a cool looking bridge, I want to cross it, especially if it goes somewhere that I'm not familiar with. Same with stairs outdoors. They feel like an adventure to me.

I like exploring old buildings like churches and hotels. I feel like architecture has been optimized so much to fire codes that most modern buildings have pretty boring layouts. But older buildings are completely batshit in their designs sometimes. Like woah there's a second little staircase down here that goes to a single room not accessible by anywhere else, or just random little hallways to nowhere. Also secret little closets everywhere, it's way more fun.

I read that as "exploding" and was a little concerned for a moment ...

But hard agree - the more "fantasy-like" a building looks, the better. Especially castles and cathedrals.
