Yesterday I accompanied my cousin Jenn and my mother to the Burke Museum. As someone who grew up going to summer day camp, there are very few local tourist attractions I haven't been to and the Burke is one of them. We specifically went to catch the touring exhibit "Hungry Planet: What the World Eats". It is a collection of photographs from around the world of families and the food they consume in a week. I have to say, the family from Ecuador had the most contagious smiles.
They also have a few spaces dedicated to Natural History and showcase some beautiful artifacts.
As we were leaving the museum we were served a special treat compliments of the brothers of Greek Row (the Burke Museum rests at the north end of the UW campus). Perched atop a second story balcony the musical stylings of late 90's rap poured out onto the sun-soaked streets as we drove away. Long-live warm spring day in Jet City.
