'Oh, that's in the annex, you need to take a bus over. The last bus left 15 minutes ago.......
Same thing happened to me when I went to Kennedy Space Centre. I was absolutely gutted not to see the Saturn 5, as we spent so much time in the new Atlantis exhibit. I went back a few years later. Not disappointed.
