Still On Vacation

[sakon76]

Currently in Tacoma, WA. The hotel we're at is literally right behind my sister's house. As in, if there wasn't a rather tall iron fence around the parking lot, we'd just walk out of the lot to her side door.

So far we've been to Charlotte's Blueberry Park (the fruits of which were made into jam and pie today), and day - tripped up to Vancouver. We were kind of disappointed that Canada didn't stamp any of our passports. Ah well. Sister has also taken me to an antique mall (see: weekend activity, growing up in our family) and an architectural salvage yard. Oh the potential for wallet-dangerous activities...

Tomorrow's plans involve hieing into Seattle and doing the tourist thing there. Space Needle, ho!

Have fun in Seattle! If you're headed to the Space Needle, I highly recommend checking out the Chihuly Garden and Glass Museum. My other Seattle favorites are the Ballard Locks, and Golden Gardens (which is a lovely beach not far from the Locks).

Thank you for the recommendations! Unfortunately I didn't check LJ again before we left, but I've added them to the list of things to go and see the next time we're in Seattle. And since my sister lives in Tacoma, there will definitely be a next time at some point....

Sounds lovely! BTW, I sent you the last payment for the stuff you ferried from the UK for us. Sorry it took so long...

Not a problem, and we were happy to play courier. Looks like the payment arrived. Thank you very much!

Oh, and you do know that there's a Museum of Science Fiction in Seattle, right?

My sister pointed it out, but also said it might be too loud and chaotic for the Squiddle, so we gave it a pass. Perhaps when he's older....
