Downtown Seattle

Marilyn's brother has two daughters in Seattle and a granddaughter so she made arrangements for us to meet them near Pike Place Market for lunch at Etta's.  It was quite simple to drive downtown but there were a lot of one way streets near our destination which made it a little confusing to find the restaurant.  However, we finallly got there and were able to park in a lot right across the street ($8 for two hours) and it was also right at the entrance to Pike Place Market.



We enjoyed a nice lunch with Kim and Sophie.

John had crab cakes which he said were a "ten".  Marilyn and I had fish and chips with cole slaw - a lot to eat, and Bob had fried oysters.  After lunch the "girls" walked over to the market while Bob and John sat on a bench.  The market was fascinating and will require a second visit.  Kim bought some flowers for us - very beautiful.  I shot some photos and we left and headed home.

Here are some pictures taken at the Pike Place Market - fabulous flowers and seafood and all kinds of other stuff.

The weather today was cloudy - mostly - but did not rain on us.  At home we realexed, read, computered and watched a little TV with our crackers and cheese for supper and then some more Sequence.  We retired for the evening with Marilyn and I ahead two games.

Tomorrow we will do the Chuckanut Drive to the north.
