Seattle - Seattle Needle and Chihuly Gardens

I'm in Seattle for work. I've visited here before but I never get tired of it. Such a pretty place. After a full day of meetings. We enjoyed time at the Seattle Needle and Chihuly Gardens.

The Space Needle in Seattle was built for the 1962 World's Fair. The views of the city, of Mt. Rainier, and the Bay Area were stunning!

Chihuly Gardens features the work of glass artist Dale Chihuly. All of the flowers in the outdoor gardens are glass. We also were able to walk through the indoor exhibit. The colors were stunning.

There was also this stunning collection of Navajo blankets in the exhibit.

After a night of fun, it's back to work today!

You did a great job of showing the glass garden. We have been there twice and never tire of it. Just look across the sound and I will be waving to you!
