Seattle & Max's Wedding

After a long adventure at BWI, I arrived in Seattle at 1 am. The short story is my flight was canceled on Friday night and was not rescheduled until Saturday night. On Saturday night, the weather delayed my flight two hours. I was so happy to see Dad, Mom, and Heather. We saw Tacoma on Sunday before the wedding. We visited the glass bridge, where this picture was taken.


Max's wedding was located in Stielacoom right off the water. The wedding was beautiful and Meg is a wonderful girl, so perfect for Max.



It was great to see Max, Shea, Uncle David, and Aunt Vickie. The reception was fun. Many of the songs were country, but there were also some classic Frank Sinatra songs.

The next day was spent touring Seattle. We went to the famous Pikes Market Place, on a cruise, ate clam chowder at Ivar's, and toured Underground Seattle. Pikes Market Place smelled a little to fishy at some points. It was fun to see the fish being thrown and all the vendors hawking their goods. We also saw the first Starbucks which is located near the market. The cruise gave a beautiful view of Seattle.



We visited Ivar's on Clay and Rachel's recommendation. The clam chowder was wonderful and we enjoyed watching the Sea Gulls outside. The last stop was the Underground Tour. It was a fun tour. Our guide was a state representative. We found out that Seattle was raised 15 to 30 feet in the early twentyth century. The day ended with my flight back to DC being delayed only a few minutes.
