I was skeptical when I was told I was being dragged along to the Museum of Glass. How interesting could glass be? Well, I was surprised. The galleries are filled with interesting and beautiful objects which I had to keep reminding myself were made from glass. What really captured my interest however was the "hot shop," a live workshop where you can watch fabulous glass creations being made. The building that houses the museum also deserves special mention: it is an architectural marvel, and well worth a visit on its own terms. The Museum of Glass is a unique and unforgettable destination.
