Short week.

Phew. This was a three-day week in Seattle. Way packed. I'm writing again from the airport before boarding my flight home. There was a lot of work, and a lot of yo-ing. I'm learning to yo with two hands now- so now my left hand is just as sore and bruised as my right one was about a month ago. But I guess I'll look cool. What good is being ambidextrous if you can't yo-yo with both hands?This week roomie and I went to our favorite restaurant and I did some more shopping for costume gear. We also went on a bit of an adventure!

Her cousin lives out on one of the peninsulas in the Puget Sound and we went to visit. We took a ferry over, which looked like this:

So beautiful.

Her cousin owns 19 acres of land. He had a barn, a cabin, a house, a forest with hiking trails and a creek, a full vegetable garden, turkeys, chickens, 16 fruit trees and a brand new baby. It was a magical place, not to mention everyone I met there was super sweet. Some photos:
It was really cool. I loved it. We were so close to the city, but so far away. We finished off the night with red wine by a bonfire. And we also cooked cheeseburgers on that fire. Yum.

Roomie and I also stopped by Pike Place Market on our way to the airport today. We saw the guys throwing fish, finally. We had a delicious dinner. We walked , shopped and took pictures. The market is really a very cool place.

I like Seattle more each time I come. But I'm still looking forward to home. Signing off.
