Our Visit to Seattle

Our flight arrived about 2 hours late on Dec 4 due to bad weather. Bob almost had to stay behind as he found out on check in that he was on the US No Fly List. Fortunately, this was straightened out just before departure.

There has been a lot of flooding in the area and Andrew was forced to take the round about way to get us to his home in Duvall. Many highways and homes have suffered serious flood damage. Today (Dec 6) we all (Genevieve, Bob Jonathan, Kristie & Andrew) went to Seattle, had a Dim Sum breakfast, visited the Space Needle, took a trip on the mono rail and visited the Science Fiction Museum.

The Dogs are having a great time. Andrew, Jonathan and Genevieve were hoping to get to Mount Baker to do some Skiing/Boarding; however, the conditions are not good. The weather is much like Vancouver this time of year. This Boeing and MicroSoft land.
