We spent four nights in Seattle and had a wonderful time with my Fabio (aka ‘Dado’), Esperanza (aka ‘Dada’), and ‘Antee ‘ Sara.
Going on a walk with Esperanza and Sara…
We were there when the weather hit the low 90’s. Very rare for Seattle. We cooled off at Lake Washington.
Here, everyone is enjoying chicharrones! (Fried pig skin…)
Visited the big, new ferris wheel. Rumor has it, it’s the second biggest one in the world!
After that, we took the boys to Ye Old Curiosity Shop. A well established waterfront landmark, this shop sell tourist-y stuff, but also contains some of the world’s oddest things. It’s fascinating and freaky all at the same time. Their history is worth reading on their website.
Two-headed lamb (I think)…………………………………The hat Chief Seattle wore………………….
Looking at the shop’s two human mummies….
Stop at the frozen yogurt shop!
One morning, I took the boys on a neighborhood walk. I wanted to walk the 2.5 mile walk that I had done earlier in the week with Esperanza and Sara. To make it more interesting, I turned into a Photographers Walk. The boys brought their iPads and were to take pictures of things that were (to them) beautiful or interesting. They turned their photos into slideshows. It was neat to see the walk through their eyes. They both had some incredible shots. I will try to get a few up here. Just need to get the files transferred.
