World Diabetes Day - Monuments In Blue

One goal of the International Diabetes Federation this year was to have 500 buildings and monuments lit in blue for World Diabetes Day. They got 1039!

Michigan had one.

Yay Saint Mary's In Grand Rapids! for lighting Lacks Atrium


The country with the most monuments and buildings lit? Argentina with 193.

Municipalidad de Villa Constitucion.



The US had 36.

Sears Tower, Chicago.


United Nations, New York.


Niagra Falls, Niagra, NY.


and because I think its fitting and funny as hell,

Peeing blue for me and you!
