Seattle, Washington

--Our Mr. Traveler--
Jack has now traveled to Long Island- New York, Cabo San Lucas- Mexico, Palm Springs, Ensenada- Mexico, Santa Barbara, and now Seattle-Washington...

The Burbank Airport became Jack's personal playground. He greeted passengers as they got off the plane with waves and kisses.

After our two hour flight we were so excited to finally arrive to Seattle. We had a week packed full of adventures, new sights, and very cold rainy weather. It was fantastic!! Shawn did all the planning and of course did an excellent job in researching all the great places we could take Jack.

The Children's Museum was on the top of the list. From the moment we arrived Jack was in heaven... so much to see and do!



The museum had rooms and rooms filled with so many exhibits-- one of Jack's favorites was the Market. It was filled with loads of food, mini carts, and even a check-out counter. Jack enjoyed pushing his own cart and picking out food.

After the Museum we headed to Downtown to check out the shops, the first Nordroms and extra large Macys. Downtown was so beautiful! We took the monorail back to the hotel which was super fun and exciting!


The Space Needle was a must-see site! What a magnificent sight!

Running in the wind on the Space Needle-- Jack loves wind!

The wind was so strong we almost blew away!

Our favorite night out was to the Pyramid Brewery.

Next on the list was Pike's Place Market and The Aquarium...

Pike's Market had such incredible fish and produce.

Jack couldn't get enough of all the fishies and animals at The Aquarium. He loved them so much he tried so hard to get inside all the fish tanks. We decided it was time to get Jack his very own fish!





If we weren't out and about-- we were playing in the hotel.

Jack knew where the key went and how to put it in all by himself.

Wishing he could push all the buttons

Seattle's Best Coffee in Seattle!!!!

We had drinks at the very first Starbucks

We had a terrific trip and even enjoyed the cold weather. It felt so good to wear long sleeves and beanies. It was unreal to arrive home to winds and 90 degree weather-- and the fires, oh my!

Where to next Shawnie???
