I think getting to Seattle early was just what the doctor ordered. We were both really tired from all the travel and I guess we were overwhelmed from all the fantastic scenery we have expereinced. A couple of days in a nice old hotel a couple of blocks from Pike's Market were exactly what we needed.
We wandered the streets of Seattle, experience some of the food and drink at the many great restaurants, and stumbled through the market a couple of times.... careful not to get trampled by the hordes of people. Saturday came and we checked out, taxied out to tht cruise terminal and boarded the Golden Princess. It's amazing how efficient they are at off loading and then loading 2600 passengers onto this ship. We took no more than half an hour after getting to the ship until we were on board, our suitcases delivered, and in a surprisingly spacious and nice room which would be home for the next week.
Our friends from Minnesota arrived shortly after us and I was soon taking photos of the lovely ladies with the space needle in the background.
Off to Alaska!!! Life is Good!
