I have seen various Chihuly exhibits through the years and I’m always impressed by their work. The garden and glass exhibits are always a treat.

Luckily for us no gator sightings, but a couple of Sandhill Cranes kept approaching our pavilion, too bad I didn’t get a picture.

Biltmore Estate, NC

The grounds are beautifully maintained, it speaks of the opulence enjoyed by the Vanderbilt family in days gone by. Today, it is a National Historic Landmark and one of North Carolina’s most popular tourist destinations and it is known as America’s largest home.

The home boasts a collection of artwork of more than 92,000 thousand items including works by Monet, Renoir and more. The tapestries alone are worth the visit.

The 250 room home’s construction began in 1889 and officially opened to family and friends in 1895.
