Seattle

We started our midwinter break with a trip to Seattle.
We went to Pike's Place Market.


(Do you see the ferry in the background?)


They say when you go to the market you must see the gum wall.

I do not agree... I just think the wall is gross.

The hammering man is very big.  It was a beautiful day.  Seattle looked good.

We visited the troll under the bridge.  ( See the full size vw bug in his hand?)  Watch out when you drive over the Fremont bridge, he just might grab your car.

This was Joey's favorite place we visited because he could climb all over the troll.
We drove through the University of Washington campus.

This is the view down the the other way.  Looking toward husky stadium.  I can't figure out my camera so it is an overexposed picture so you can't see Mt. Rainer in the background.  The UW has a beautiful campus.

We went to Archie McPhee's in Wallingford.

We ended at UW village and had Chicago style stuffed pizza.
It was a great day!  During this trip we focused on some of the public art that Seattle is filled with.  I didn't take a picture of all  of it.  We can't wait to go back to Seattle  when the weather is warmer.
