Seattle

It’s really cloudy. We went into Seattle around 9 am and found our way to a parking garage, but it took two sets of instructions to find our way to Pike Place Market. Once we did, it was wall to wall people enjoying the sights and taking pictures.

In the Starbuck’s picture (supposedly the very first one), notice me taking the picture and Carman next to me.

I always take pictures of big cruise boats, because I’ve never been on one.

Seattle is almost as bad as San Francisco with all the hills and steps. It was 172 steps out of the Pike Place Market to where we parked the car.

We had planned to have lunch at an interesting restaurant, but felt that the prices were too high and the offerings not that great. We opted for a Russian piroshky which is nothing but a Polish pirogie. Later we found a bar with a deck and the sun was finally shining. Then we found an Albertson’s to buy more food for Carman to cook. Monday was housecleaning day and washing. Tomorrow we leave for Mt. St. Helen’s.
