Gong Gong and Grandma Joanne spent a week in Seattle and are going to spend a week at the Oregon Coast so we met up with them for a few days in Seattle/Portland for some fun.
 |
| Brunch at Screen Door in the Pearl District to celebrate Didi's birthday, Olin's birthday, Ev's birthday and my birthday. And jeff's! |
 |
| Got there plenty early (45 minutes) to be first in line for brunch and brought along Nine Holes to play. |

 |
| Scrimmage Day at Husky Stadium |
 |
| Almost everyone won a bobblehead doll. Gong Gong won a football, Olin won a beanie, and Ev won a patch. |
 |
| I did not realize it would be so cold and had this dress to wear all weekend, which was not really the right attire for game day! |
 |
| Happy people at Happy Lemon in South Lake Union, Seattle |
 |
| Outside MOD pizza in Seattle. Turns out MOD's cauliflower crust has the same amount of carbs as regular so Gong Gong couldn't really partake in that, either, but at least he got to try it. |
 |
| Larrabee State Park just south of Bellingham. Nice little rainforest area to the beach (below). We then drove the scenic Chuckanut Drive up to Bellingham for lunch. |
 |
| My friends had said La Conner, Wa was a cute town on the way to Bellingham and it was pretty cute although very few people around. The coffee shop people said lots of businesses had closed due to Covid and things still do pick up a bit on weekends. |
 |
| Christian did 7 |
 |
| Olin did 3 |
 |
| Cool shot Grandma Joanne caught when the air was really smoky earlier in the week |
Memorable and fun gathering!
ReplyDeleteWe had the same experience at La Conner during Tulip Festival. Many stores were closed on weekdays due to COVID.
