Because I got a comment on my last post, and because the boy just called me, and oh, yeah, I promised, here's the photographic proof of my trip to Seattle...
I do love the
overpriced cupcake place - even though they refused to ship me cupcakes:
Lavender, triple threat chocolate, salted caramel, and Kate. Yes, Kate. I'm guessing it was for breast cancer research. And this is what I call breakfast.
We also went to Alki, which is right on the bay, and had fabulous foods and drinks. Because it was such a lovely day, and because I love sticking an appendage of mine into the water:
It was COLD! But the tide was coming in, and it danced around us, and I couldn't resist. We walked down the shore, hand in hand, looking for sea lions and seals:
Of course we used our eyes, but we thought we might have a cheat. And we might have, had this telescope not been broken. That would've been nice to know before I dropped a quarter into it (laundry!).
After scoping out the real estate, and dreaming of a bay-side condo that only cost $1600/month (including parking!) we decided to take the water taxi home.
If I didn't tell you how much I love water, you know now.
The shipping yard. Substantially more astounding in person - there are crates the size of fields, all labelled with Chinese characters.
On the opposite side of the shipping yard, here's the view of Seattle - and the Needle - and quite possibly, the Real World house. I might have annoyed the heck of out the boy as I tried to figure out which quay was the house of stupidity.
On the ceiling of the taxi, there was safety first! Considering it was only a twenty-minute ride, I wasn't too nervous. Also, the taxi conductors were having cocktails, so I kept getting more and more relaxed.
Ready for more personal shots? Me too!
My supplies stay behind his, so we can sort them out by touch when we're up early. Also, he's quite tidy.
Half-off glass-drawing pen? Don't mind if he does! I don't think he meant the outline to really be Conan, but it's how it seemed to me. You?
Finally, a bit of cuteness:
Going back, hopefully, over our birthdays (in March).
