A "CanStructive" Idea...



We went to South Coast Plaza today to see the 3rd Annual "CanStruction" exhibit at South Coast Plaza. Fourteen architecture, engineering, and design firms took part in this competition, constructing enormous structures out of cans of food. When the exhibit closes at the end of the month, all food items will be donated to the Orange County Food Band.
South Coast Plaza covers a lot of ground. After seeing five of the exhibits in the main building, we enjoyed salads on the patio at Wolfgang Pucks. Then, we crossed over to the "Home Store" portion of the plaza, where nine either structures were on display. We finished our adventure with some book shopping at Borders, followed by "Seattle's Best" Mochas on the bookstore's patio. With school now in session, the mall and the restaurants were nearly empty - the perfect time to enjoy some local color!
