Seattle



While visiting Seattle there are many exciting and fun places to visit. Pioneer Square, Pike Place Market, Myrtle Edwards Park, Seattle Art Museum, Seattle Aquarium , Seattle Public Library, Seattle Waterfall Garden…Just to name a few. Check out the history of it’s Pioneer Square District. Settled in 1852 and burned to the ground in 1889, Seattle’s historic Pioneer Square District features 88 acres of beautifully restored architectural masterpieces, including buildings designed in the Second Renaissance-Revival, Beaux-Arts Classical, and Richardsonian-Romanesque styles... one of the largest collections of unique architecture in the United States. Make your splash at the Seattle Aquarium. Listen to the calls of our region’s orca whales. Stand within a circle of glowing jellyfish. Run your fingers along a sea anemone’s soft tentacles. Delight in the antics of the sea otters. Then come back for another visit — and an entirely different experience. At the Seattle Aquarium there’s always something fun to discover, and inspiration on how to help protect our marine environment. No matter where you visit in the “Queen City” the smell of coffee is sure to be in the air from Starbucks or Seattle's Best.



Philadelphia

This city plays home to an astounding collection
of museums, artistic venues and historical attractions. There’s the Liberty Bell, of course — plus amazing art installations, jazz venues, architectural landmarks and much more.
Stroll through Longwood Gardens. When you’re at Longwood Gardens, it’s easy to imagine that you’re at a giant, royal garden in Europe. Stroll along the many paths through acres of exquisitely maintained grounds featuring 11,000 different types of plants. See one of the “First Churches” Today, Philadelphia’s more than 800 houses of worship include the most “first churches” (within their denominations) in the country, and represent many different faiths, architectural styles and communities.



New Orleans



Put The New Orleans Museum of Art on your list! Louisiana’s culture often seems to have sprung from its fertile soil. Out of the rich Louisiana sugar fields, New Orleans received a gift of lasting culture in early 1910, when sugar broker Isaac Delgado offered the city $150,000 to build a “temple of art for rich and poor alike” in City Park. The neo-classical, Beaux Arts-style Isaac Delgado Museum of Art opened in December 1911, but sadly, Delgado was too ill to attend. He died weeks later, and left yet another generous gift, an art collection gathered by his late aunt. Delgado’s 25,000-square-foot “temple” is still at the center of the now much larger New Orleans Museum of Art. See on of many of the New Orleans Area Plantations. They were once the mainstays of a regional agrarian economy, as well as the bastions of a genteel culture. Now they are major tourist attractions offering windows into a bygone past. They are the plantations, and in southern Louisiana there are a good number of them within easy driving distance of New Orleans.
