underground tour

were the only people without children at the Seattle Aquarium (there were no whales. but there were otters)
Seattle Art Museum-most crowded museum i've ever been in. and i don't get the hanging cars thing. (all museums in seattle are free on the first thursday of each month, for future reference.)
Pike Place Market-flowers, donettes, wood block cards, gum wall.
Space Needle (you all know what that looks like)

used Self-Timer to the max at Fremont Troll

pioneer Square-didn't stop a book thief that ran by us (saddest moment of the trip)

hi kate, bet you didn't know that i stalk your blog. hope that's okay. i love these pictures. it's kind of peder's and my old stomping ground. all these places bring back soooo many memories. i've never seen that troll though. next time we're up seeing the in-laws for sure!
but the asian art museum is actually really cool!

i love that you took dramatic pictures. i hate that i can't click and blow up the pictures so i can creepily examine every inch of each photo (i mostly wanted to see the pictures with the troll because it looks to me like someone is running to get in the pictures and i think that might have been funny to look at close up).

i know. i can't figure out why it won't let you make the pictures giant. it's annoying.
(hi katie!)
