A couple of weeks ago, AH and I were lucky enough to make a visit to a local glass blowing studio and watch a demonstration of this ancient art. We learned a little physics along the way, too!

| We watched while our host made a glass horse in 2 minutes. After it had cooled, the kids got to handle it. |
 |
| We watched a wine glass being made. |

 |
| We also watched them make a vase. |
 |
| Here they are adding polka dots to the vase. |

| The vase is removed from the rod. |

Looks like an interesting demonstration--I've never seen glass blowing before!
