eddie vedder + crab

we said goodbye to one of my new favorite cities and headed north to Seattle just for a night. 

Dave lived in Seattle for a year between undergrad and med school so we spent most of our time seeing where he used to live, eat, drink and work.  did anyone know that he worked behind the meat counter making rotisserie chickens and panini's at what is now called metro market; sold cars and rented cars all in Seattle.   All within in a year?  Busy guy.  According to Dave Seattle has changed a lot over the last ten years...  

Here we are catching the sunset in Queen Anne over looking puget sound: 












Still an amazing place, great vistas, fun shops and people.  We stayed at the Ace Hotel, which is a European style boutique hotel with limited everything including space...  we were greeted (as I think all guests are or maybe just us) with the kama sutra and more lifestyle condoms than one could go through in a one night stay!  When we checked in they wanted to make sure we were ok with all guests being able to see into the shower...  see photos below.  













we had a great dinner of Dungeness crab and called it a day. stopped at east side records to pick up the into the wild cd, it's an awesome soundtrack for our trip.  not much to report on Seattle other than we love it, and we'll be back!  

Had to get up early to catch the ferry to the San Juan's the next day.
