China Lights Exhibit-Boerner Botanical Gardens

Tonight Lou and myself along with Mom and Jeremy visited the traveling China Lights exhibit at Boerner Botanical Gardens.

This is an amazingly beautiful display of Chinese Laterns-which come in many different types of shapes and sizes and are crafted from silk and wire and lighted.

This exibit has been known to bring 2000 to 3000 people per night. It was very,very crowded, but we were lucky enough to park on the Golf Course and get shuttled to and from the exhibit.

Each display was carefully arranged within the Gardens and was stunning. Relaxing music was piped along the way and created an almost surreal affect. Mom remarked that she felt she was in a dream.

Below are some of the beautiful pictures.
