We’ve Arrived in Seattle

Uncategorized

20 Jul
Hello, Crafters.
Yesterday we arrived in Seattle after a pleasant uneventful journey from the UK.
 After waiting for a few others to arrive at the airport, we were all
 transferred by coach to the hotel for our overnight stay 
before boarding thee cruise ship. 
After we had freshened up, we went for a walk in Seattle, down to the Pike Market. 
As our body clocks weren’t sure what day it was, we decided
 we’d get a bite to eat, and found ourselves in Hard Rock cafe.

 It has been quite a few years since we have eaten at Hard Rock, 
and it was good to pay them a visit. 
After that, we felt very comfortable and ready to go for a wander 
around Pike Market, which was a very fascinating experience! 
We wandered down Post Alley and came across this strange
 little area where all the outside walls have been covered with bubble gum. 
We had very mixed reactions – part admiring to multi coulored 
walls, andpart thinking that it wasn’t exactly a good idea!
 Seattle is the home of Starbucks, and there was a long queue outside
 the first shop which dates back to 1912.
 It’s  museum inside today full of early memorabilia
I took the photograph below of the head office as we drove past in our coach.

Considering we were up at 4.00 am yesterday in the UK and managed

 about three hours sleep on the plane, we did a fair bit of walking before we had a very early night!
That’s about it from me. I’ll try and post my blog tomorrow from the ship!
 In the meantime, happy crafting,
JanB.

    This is great Jan, looking at photographs of your fabulous experience of this trip to Alaska. The first part of your journey seems to have been fantastic, a plane ride, a coach ride and next stop the cruise ship! Have fun – not green with envy in any way! :o) xx
