My mom and sister came again for a visit this year. This time they flew into Seattle. I went there to pick them up.

Day 1#

The vacation already started with some excitement. As you can see, there is no luggage. It didn’t make it to Seattle. This isn’t the first time they are flying, which meant they were prepared. The had some essentials in their carry. We headed to the hotel and afterwards down to the wharf. Taking pictures and getting some sun. It was a beautiful day.

Day 2#

The second day was very overcast. We had high humidity, but at least it wasn’t too hot. We went down to the Public Market and found “Sisters European Sandwiches”. We had a good breakfast there and then went into the market.

When we left the market, we ended up here. A street just covered with old, discarded bubble gum. You can see, how thrilled I was …

After that, we made our way to the water taxi and headed over to Seacrest Park. From there we had a really nice view of Seattle.

We made our way back to the hotel. We needed a bit of a rest before heading out for Dinner. Their luggage arrived. We went to the Elephant & Castle Pub and Restaurant. A really nice place. Good food and the service was great. Also a lot more affordable than the prices down at the wharf.

Day 3#

We had a quick breakfast at Redtrees Restaurant and Bar inside of the Hilton. The food was good and the prices were lower than in our own hotel. The service was really slow and you had to get a pin code to be able to go into the washrooms. Anyways, we headed to White Rock. Border was quick and easy. The weather in White Rock was Really nice.
