Trains at the US Botanical Gardens – Nautical Theme by Applied Imagination

The creative artists at Applied Imagination have once again provided an incredible display at the US Botanic Gardens.  The kids go for the trains, but I am always amazed at the buildings made out of all natural materials.  The theme this year is nautical with lighthouses from around the world, and a few ships too.
