Going to Seattle!

Dear readers, I am going to Seattle tomorrow for a long weekend with my sister-in-law!  I am so excited!  Seattle is a place I've always wanted to see.  As you can see, I am all prepared.  I have the perfect purse, and I have a set of cards describing the sites.  They are part of Chronicle Book's City Walks series, and they are amazing.  Each card details a walking tour of a part of the city.  There is so much I want to see!  Belltown (Chartruese is in Belltown, I'm hoping to shop there), Georgetown, Seattle Waterfront, the International District, Gas Works Park, California Avenue, Kubota Garden, etc.!  Of course, I also want to see Pike Place Market.  We want to visit the original Starbucks.  Seems only fitting since she and I had our first cup of Chai tea together.  We didn't even know what it was at the time.  Now we are both Starbucks fanatics.  I'll be signing off until next Wednesday.  I'm sure I will have plenty of pictures to share, and I hope to bring back a pretty vase.  xxoo

Thanks Jessie! Were your ears burning yesterday? I told my sister-in-law about your recent road trip. After the experiences I had at the airports yesterday, I may never fly again and may drive for my next trip! :)

Oh well - I'm off to Pike Place Market and to find the original Starbucks!
