SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, USA 

Below made me feel like I was inside a Kaleidoscope! SO BEAUTIFUL! I have been a fan of his work for years.

Below is some of his signature pieces called Macchia where he can use all 300 colors available to him. Love the "lip" of different color!

What a view of the Space Needle! I have been to Seattle before and the Needle was just in an open field before - now the block is teaming with Museums - Mo Pop and Science Museums right next door too.

Outside the Museum is a small garden, with more creative pieces and even a small bunny was enjoying! Right around the corner, is the MoPOP Museum, designed by Frank Gehry. Hard to photograph all the unique lines but I liked the finish colors.

We capped of this busy day with an amazing Wood Fired Pizza Dinner at Delancey. Meet up with fellow shipmates/ bookclub enthusiast to eat here since it was subject of book we all read by Molly Wizenberg called Delancey: A Man, A Woman, a Restaurant, a Marriage. Some of the best food I have ever had from start to finish! So YUMMY!!

L to R: Phil, Peggy, Me, Fran, Rose, Gary, Christy & Kim.
