We had the opportunity to visit the Body Worlds Exhibit at the Portland Science Center the other day with our friends Rick and Nano. The exhibit is pretty interesting with real bodies dissected and then plasticized. Pretty fascinating seeing just how complex we all are and what incredible damage we do to ourselves via injury, smoking and poor eating habits. Worth a visit.
The weather has been unseasonably warm so far and with temps in the 50's, so a walk around Portland's historic Old Port was in order, of course stopping in several of the 230 restaurants and bars! We finished up the evening at the "Chocolate Bar" which specializes in Martinis and desserts. DeeDee and Nano partook of a decadent Peanut Butter Chocolate Martini, while Rick and I had Mocha Espresso Martinis and then we tried Absinthe. Absinthe was until recently illegal due to falsely perceived notions that is was addictive and a hallucinogenic. I'm not sure about the addictive properties, but I was seeing things on the way home!
