When: May 24 // Weather: 60s & sunny // Real life: exploring Seattle and Bainbridge Island
A couple weeks ago I went to Seattle for a conference, and my lovely spouse came out to meet me so we could enjoy a couple days in the Pacific Northwest. It was the first time for both of us. Let me tell you, the flowers at Pike Place Market are no joke. They’re impossibly beautiful and so cheap. Kristin and I both had the same idea and surprised each other with bouquets (but I did it first so I win wife of the year).
On our first “day off” in Seattle, we took the ferry to Bainbridge Island to do some wine tasting at Eleven Winery and shopping at some local boutiques. Apparently, fruit prints are my new jam (pun intended), because while wearing this strawberry-print shirt, I bought a banana-print dress. Don’t worry, it will make an appearance on the blog before too long.
Back in the city, we took a self-guided tour of Smith Tower. If you ask me, from the outside, Smith Tower resembles a certain piece of anatomy that I do not possess. But on the inside, it’s art-deco fabulous, and there’s a speakeasy-style bar at the tip…I mean the top.
