Visiting Leavenworth Washington
I've had the privilege the last couple of days to be in Leavenworth, Washington helping with the logistics of a Facilitator's training program with Washington State LASER (Leadership and Assistance for Science Education Reform). It is truly a beautiful, Bavarian-like city in the mountains of the Pacific Northwest. The views here are spectacular and the warmth of the townspeople make the stay a really enjoyable one. My only wish is that my family could be here to enjoy it with me.
Information including the history of the town can be found at www.leavenworth.org. The website says this: "The story of Leavenworth is a testament to the determination of the human spirit. From a dying timber and rail town it converted itself into an alpine Bavarian village. Leavenworth has become a pillar of the tourism industry in the Pacific Northwest. Today, more than 2.5 million tourists come to Leavenworth each year, each visitor finding their own individual love affair with the community."
This weekend is Maifest in Leavenworth and I've attached a picture of the Maypole dancers in the town center.
