I was up in Seattle about a month ago, and while we were there, we visited the Chihuly Garden and Glass Museum.\u00a0 It’s just below the Seattle Space Needle. \u00a0 I enjoyed it, and if you are in the area and you want to experience something new, this is a place you might consider visiting.\u00a0 I had seen exotic blown glass in Venice (Italy, not California) a few years ago and I guess I was expecting to see more of the same, but trust me on this, the Chihuly Museum is unique.\u00a0 It features the blown glass artistry of Daly Chihuly, and it’s unlike anything I’d ever seen.\u00a0 The shapes, the colors, the size of the sculptures…all of it was amazing.\u00a0 Take a peek…<\/p>\n

The Chihuly blown glass sculptures are huge, and it you look carefully at the photos, you can see people in the background and that will give you a sense of scale.\u00a0 The Nikon’s low light level capabilities came through for me here; these photos accurately portray what we saw in the Museum’s darkened interior.<\/p>\n

There sure are a lot of interesting things to see here in the US, and I’m constantly amazed at how many of them I had never heard of before.\u00a0 The Chihuly Museum was in that category. \u00a0 There are other exciting destinations out there, and when Gresh and I find them, you’ll read about it here.\u00a0 Gresh is headed out to the Yamaha Endurofest in a couple of weeks (watch for that), and I’m headed overseas again.\u00a0 More good stuff coming up, folks!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
