Seattle

We are back from the honeymoon and are attempting to keep you all updated with life after the "Big Day!"

We got to Seattle the Thursday after the wedding. What a lovely place! We walked around the down town area for almost three days before leaving for the cruise. Of course we visited Pike Place Market. Oh if only IN had something like this life would be complete! We tried all sorts of delicious pastries and fruit...it was hard to say goodbye, but Alaska was feverishly antcipating our arrival!
We mosied by the Space Needle, built in 1961ish ( we could be wrong on this, again, we simply passed through!) We were a bit disappointed by this well known landmark...I think marketing people really fix this structure up in their advertising to make it look more interesting. What we did find intersting was the R.E.I. outlet that was a mile walk from the needle. At which we almost bought several nice pieces of apparel but then sowly talked ourselves our of the purchases only to regret said decision later in the trip...once you see the pictures you'll understand why!
This is the view from our hotel room...Seattle is a beautiful emerald kissed city that has asked us to return at a later date, a request which we will be happy to oblige!
