Another beautiful Seattle day with Tiff & Graham

Today was by far, the warmest, most beautiful day that we've had in Seattle since we moved here in December/January. The temps were in the mid-70s (such a difference from the rain and low 50s, when my parents were here last week), and it's only going to get warmer over the next couple of days.

My Sis and Graham are staying in Downtown Seattle all week. I hooked up with them again and spent the afternoon with them. This is Graham's first visit to Seattle, so they are hitting all the major sights.

We walked from their hotel down to Pike Place. Again, what a difference from the cold and wet weather I had here last week with my parents.


Tiff and Graham at Pike Place Market

Graham had done some research and found the best Chowder in Seattle. We had a delicious lunch at Pike Place Chowder. Yum!


Mmmmm... Chowder!

We walked around the market a bit...




The original Starbucks - the exact same spot where I took a photo of my parents last week


Photo from the market overlooking the Sound. See the ferris wheel? that's where we're going next...

We walked along the pier a bit, and found ourselves at the ferris wheel. It was such a clear, beautiful day - We decided to treat ourselves to a ride on the ferris wheel.

Look how clear and HUGE Mt Rainier is!
