Sunny in Seattle!

Today was an easy trip through the airport and a great flight on Virgin America.

We made it to Seattle in time for lunch at Pike's Place Market where parking was only $8.00 per half hour! FYI we finally found street parking which was free for Memorial Day. The market was bustling with people and full of fresh seafood, produce and flowers. We had amazing clam chowder, shrimp and Beecher's Mac and Cheese. The city seems very relaxed and easy going with a lot of people sunning, walking dogs, picnicking and playing in the park.

The condo rental we are staying at is in Capitol Hill...it's beautiful and really close to a fun main-street with great restaurants and an expansive green park. After walking through the park, we went to one of the many coffee shops and had a couple drinks, and later got a take home pizza for dinner and some beer and wine from the store. So many places to try we will see what comes next...there is fresh salmon from Alaska in all the stores that sounds good for tomorrow.

Pictures to come soon!!
