The Jim Henson Exhibit @ MoPOP ♥


First of all, I didn't realize EMP changed their name to MoPOP, Museum of Pop Culture.
We decided to check out the Jim Henson exhibit.
He designed characters for Sesame Street, Fraggle Rock, Dark Crystal, costumes for Labyrinth, etc.
It was pretty cool!


A quick bite at the cafe.

We also checked out the other exhibits they offer...
Music, Sci-fi, Indie Games, etc.








Milo was having a blast running around freely.
We went at a later time so the museum wasn't crowded at all.

Hello Seattle ♥


The EMP museum is currently hosting a Hello Kitty Exhibit.
It ends next month so my sister and I decided to go!  I brought Kai along with me.
久々のダウンタウン シアトル。
来月までキティーちゃんのミュージアム、博物館が開かれてます。
カイとデート!そしてエリカおばちゃんも一緒♥




We tried a couple breakfast cafes for brunch but they were packed with long waiting lines...so we decided to try the POP cafe inside the EMP museum.  It was surprisingly delicious♥
Kai approved.
カフェでブランチ。おいしかったね♥


The exhibit was fun!  Kai had a blast♥



Kai = 8 apples tall.
Me = 12 apples tall!


I love these!
きゃわいい~!



Not only Hello Kitty but the museum was packed with other genres exhibits.
Games, sci-fi, music, fantasy,etc.
キティーちゃん以外にもゲームとか、音楽、サイファイ、ファンタジー、などなど。


Thanks for coming with us Erika!
This was fun and we should get together again ^_^



This was part of the sci-fi exhibit.
It was a pretend spaceship control room!
宇宙船!



And of course, a tribute to Prince♥
Miss him already...he was truly a one of a kind.
亡くなったプリンスへのトリビュートも。



Auntie and Kai♥
エリカとカイ。仲良し。



Kai's first monorail ride! he loved it.
モノレールデビュー。


And of course, the Space Needle!
The sky cleared up for a little bit and I was able to get this shot.
一瞬晴れてくれて、スペースニードルの写真撮れた!


This is new...Not your typical playground.
And I think it's intended for older kids--that slide is INSANE!
