CROUCHING TIGERESSES
came over to help dad put up the Christmas lights while the girls were
busy playing Kung Fu.
A VISIT FROM ST. NICK
There was also the carolers who sang just about any Christmas carol old and new.
WINTERFEST
We finally made it to the Westlake Center where the festivities were going on. Took these pictures while were waiting for Santa to arrive and starting the lighting of the star atop the Macy's formerly known as the Bon Marche department store. Although it was Black Friday, I did not do any shopping as there was a gazillion people everywhere. I was sooooo glad that we took the light rail into town and did not have to deal with the traffic jam on the streets. However we did have to deal with the human traffic jam for a short while. Don't know what was behind the protesting. Dad went to go find out but they had already dispersed.
PIONEER SQUARE SHOPS
Pioneer Square is the old part of downtown Seattle and it is full of old buildings and quaint little shops. I have to mention that the reason why Mimi has her hands up like paws and her tongue hanging out is because for the past year or so she likes to pretend that she is a dog. It drives me nuts sometimes. Hopefully she will outgrow this stage soon.
ITALIAN COFFEE SHOP
The name escapes me at this moment but there is a little small Italian coffe shop in Pioneer Square that Uncle David's childhood friend Curtis brought us to about 3 years ago when we were here on Christmas vacation with the family. So this is where we took the kids. Blake says it was the best strawberry ice cream that he has ever had. So good that he went back for another scoop. It was actually strawberry gelato that both he and Mimi scarfed down.
