Chihuly at Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden / January 20, 2007 : The <a href="http://www.ftg.org/Chihuly/index.html" target="_blank"> <b>Chihuly at Fairchild</a></b> exhibition has returned and is on exhibit throughout <a href="http://www.ftg.org/index.html"  target="_blank"> <b>Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden</a></b> from December 9, 2006, to May 31, 2007.

World renowned artist Dale Chihuly is making an unprecedented return to Fairchild with a new and expanded installation of his magnificient art.  The 2007 exhibition marks the first time Dale Chihuly has ever exhibited in the same location twice.  

Dale Chihuly is most frequently lauded for revolutionizing the Studio Glass movement by expanding its original premise of the solitary artist working in a studio environment to encompass the notion of collaborative teams and a division of labor within the creative process. However, Chihuly's contribution extends well beyond the boundaries of both this movement and even the field of glass: his achievements have influenced contemporary art in general.

Miami MetroZoo / September 3, 2006 : When I began my visit today, the sun was shining brightly!!  I had just finished going around the Wings of Asia (aviary) and was starting for a second "go-round" when the skies opened up.  Unfortunately, the rains never stopped so that was the end of my trip to the zoo.  The birds are found in an exhbit called the "Wings of Asia."  A couple of the bird photos are blurry . . . some of the birds would just not cooperate and stay still long enough for me to get a good shot :)

Epcot / April 9, 2006 : Epcot, the Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow, opened in 1982. It was conceived by Walt Disney to "take its cue from the new ideas and new technologies that are now emerging from the creative centers of American industry." This concept is best exemplified by Spaceship Earth, the glistening geosphere that has become Epcot's icon. 

Epcot consists of two themed areas, <b><i>Future World</i></b> and <b><i>World Showcase</i></b>. <b><i>Future World</i></b> features attractions that focus on energy, communication, health, the land and our environment, the ocean, imagination, transportation and space exploration. 

Centered around a beautiful reflective lagoon is Epcot's <b><i>World Showcase</i></b>. Eleven countries are represented, each providing fascinating glimpses into their unique culture. Strolling from one land to another, you'll find yourself immersed in the distinct atmosphere that each country offers. 

Every evening, Epcot presents <b><i>IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth</i></b>. This spectacular presentation is centered around the World Showcase Lagoon where fireworks, lasers and dancing fountains combine in a choreographed display performed to an inspirational musical score.
