We toured a little Euro restaurant. It had hallways that were 2 foot wide. They were defined by curtains. Tiny tables were behind them with 8 people sitting around them. It had a bar that was 10 foot wide with 9 people sitting at it. I am so serious. That was pretty wild!!! I could have fit the restaurant in our small apartment. We missed its attractions, somehow. We walked a mile north from Broadway and Denny. It was alright.. We wolfed down some gyros at this near vacant hole-in-the-wall. The people who worked there were Greek. wow.... Anyway, my judgement is on hold. I've heard the warm weather will bring out the street entertainment here. I am realizing that Seattle is pretty big, and pretty crowded. We haven't begun to see it all. I finally fouund decent beer at QFC. Its called Hornsby's Hard Cider. |

Its a 0.5 mile walk to Starbucks from our apartment. It takes just 10 minutes to walk it. That is COOL!
This old dump truck probably still runs! Its got a load of dirt in its bed. The Backhoe behind it has a load of dirt !

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. |
