Leavenworth was a nice destination to relax and enjoy the scenery. We wandered around the town, took alot of photos of this Bavarian village and had fun looking in all the shops. We rented a condo so there was room for everyone to spread out and it's nice (and inexpensive) not to eat every meal out. It is funny to observe the kids at restaurants. For example, one night we went out to eat dinner and were seated in a nice restaurant in downtown Leavenworth. There wasn't much to do while waiting for our food so my very imaginative son began making various shapes with his napkin. I thought to myself "Wow what a creative boy!" Until I realized that he was making a wide variety of weapons with his napkins including different gun sounds to match each weapon. I'm so proud!
We're now in Seattle which feels like my second home. I lived in the area for 20 years so I love to visit. We're staying downtown so we can walk everywhere. This is SeaFair weekend so there's lots of activity going on. We've seen the Blue Angels flying overhead and the Navy Ships are also at the Pier. We took the monorail to the Seattle Center and the kids loved the Pacific Science Center which is similar to OMSI. We've been doing alot of walking and the kids are starting to get worn out although not too worn out to punch each other every time they see a slugbug. Here are a few questions that I must ask myself:
More later.....
-- Why doesn't our hotel have FREE Wi-Fi?
-- Why didn't the parking attendent tell David that the garage is closed on weekends? Luckily we figured that out just a few minutes before he closed up for the weekend. Otherwise we wouldn't have been able to get the car out on Sunday. Crisis averted!
-- Why did I just tell Sydney that we're going to Disney World next summer and we're go to drive to Florida?! I simply told her the drive should only take a week each way and then we'd have 2 whole days to spend at Disney World before driving back. If you're unsure of her reaction to that news please refer to the previous blog entry. ( I probably won't win any Mommy awards for that story but it sure made me chuckle and isn't that what roadtrips are all about?)
