July 19 - Trolls and locks






We headed up to Seattle and explored Lake Union. The house boats were interesting to watch. We walked under the Fremont bridge to find the Troll then made our way down to the locks. We met up with Helen and Bill, had fish and chips lunch in a park listening to Jazz, played Nerts, then explored the locks. They packed so many pleasure boats into the lock before they raised them up into Lake Union. The salmon ladder was interesting and we saw some huge Chinook. The heat is wonderful and we feel like we have dried out since leaving the penninsula. This is a wonderful time of year to be here. Back at the camper the boys were wiped out - they were in bed by 9pm.
