Not So Sleepless in Seattle!

Well, this week, work has brought me to Seattle, Washington....and....it's official, I LOVE Seattle! Traveling for work has often times left me wanting to move to the cities I visit...Ft. Worth, Minneapolis, Charlotte, San Diego and now Seattle. Yes, I would like to live in Seattle. Yeah, I think it rains more than in Memphis, but it's a beautiful city! When I left Memphis on Wednesday, it was nearly 100 degrees, humid and miserable. When I arrived in Seattle, it was 68 degrees cloudy with the sun peaking out now and then and wonderful! We had a little down time and walked around downtown. My favorite part was the Pike Place Market District.


Fresh fruit and veggies everywhere as well as bakeries, t-shirt shops and more. I even bought Case the cutest hand-knit beanie that looks like a frog.

Fresh fish, of course, that looked delicious. And when someone orders one, they toss it to the counter. Flying fish everywhere! Very fun to watch!




This is a cute little flower shop near our hotel called, buckets. Too cute!

And here is a pic of my, "fill from the ceiling" pedestal tub in my room. It was awesome! I filled it up and watched So You Think You Can Dance while I soaked. Needless to say, I had no trouble sleeping after that!

And as much as I have enjoyed this great city, I'm looking forward to seeing my boys tomorrow!
