The lady in the green raincoat muttered "They murdered my entire family because I pressed charges and wouldn't drop them". She was just going on and on. Her English was excellent. There are a lot of gothic people here. A couple walked by me and one was mumbling "I can't believe all of this depressing #$^@ is happening. Its hard to go on.". They were walking about .5 miles an hour. I wanted to say, "The depressing stuff might stop if you just walk faster to your appointments!", but I stayed quiet. Probably the strangest thing I heard today; A homeless person asked me for a cigarette. I told him I only had a couple. Then he asked me "Can I just have a couple of puffs then"....wow. And the most unexpected thing I heard today was... A Japanese looking fellow entered Starbucks, and with a thick British accent, he ordered a latte. His accent was a complete surprise. I guess we'll be seeing a lot of that as the world becomes one. |

After riding a bus, and walking several blocks, we took the Seattle Underground Tour for $14 a ticket.
The comedy routine was hilarious. That was the show. We were probably above ground as much as we were under
Becky had to take it at this point. I got sick in the last 30 minutes. I wasn't even sure I could make it home. This was the highligh of the tour, being underneath the sidewalk. Hmmm. |

We almost moved here. Its the 801 Towers. I was checking it out in Louisville before we took off. BUT, it was the first apartment we checked out, I hesitated, and we lost a 10th floor apartment overlooking Seattle and Puget Sound.
As tiny as Seattle is, as crowded as it is, they are still building condos. |

Everybody in the oddience (spelling) was a comedian. I counted 50 customers. I think there were 40 stand up comics. We were in the spotlight several times, sometimes bashed, sometimes just called on to verify reality...lol. It was a hoot!
