This week, the theme at Where's My Backpack? is: dazzling. So why wait? Let's get dazzled.The other day, my neighbor's tree was an explosive cascade of color as the sun went long and gold against it.When in Rome...go and tour the Vatican. I almost said I didn't want to see it, but George insisted we go, and I'm so glad we did. It's difficult to pick any one thing that was more dazzling or glorious than the next, though many of the fabulous features have already been photographed by a bajillion people. (Think Sistine Chapel, which really is tremendous.)And then there is the map room. Corridor. Gallery. Every square inch of that room was covered in some kind of fantastic, elaborate painting or sculpture or carving. It was astonishing. Even after walking through most of the Vatican museum and galleries, I still gasped. And was overwhelmed. And had to leave; it was quickly too much.And then we go to the Outer Banks. Sunrise on the Atlantic Ocean can dazzle a person on its own, without anything added to it.The bars in Reykjavik put on a glitzy show during the Christmas season. This is but one of them. And it is highly recommended.And finally, here is a bit of razzle-dazzle right here at home, on my window sill. I'm not entirely sure why the designer thought these lucite deer deserved to be given the Jabba the Hutt/Slave Leia treatment, but there they are nonetheless. Plus, they sure do catch the light beautifully, don't they?Are you dazzled yet? If not, let Richard Gere give you a little Razzle-Dazzle out the door (and if you haven't seen Chicago, then change that immediately).[youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YW3MIixEps4]
