The first two days required adjustments to the concussion of the North Shore waves. Sleeping the first night required some getting use to the sound and feelings.










Something you don't see in Alexandria Virginia very often.











The beach outside the Ke Iki Beach property is a refreshing place. Not heavily populated, lots of white sand, and waves that provide hours and hours of entertainment.

Cloud Gate on the AT&T Plaza -- Cloud Gate is British artist Anish Kapoor's first public outdoor work installed in the United States. The 110-ton elliptical sculpture is forged of a seamless series of highly polished stainless steel plates, which reflect the city's famous skyline and the clouds above. A 12-foot-high arch provides a "gate" to the concave chamber beneath the sculpture, inviting visitors to touch its mirror-like surface and see their image reflected back from a variety of perspectives.

Inspired by liquid mercury, the sculpture is among the largest of its kind in the world, measuring 66-feet long by 33-feet high. Cloud Gate sits upon the At&T Plaza, which was made possible by a gift from AT&T.  Posted by Picasa
