We just could not resist another visit to Seattle. We planned a rondeavouz with Helen at her apartment. She has a wonderful view of the city centre and space needle. We enjoyed a good cup of tea and a great donut before venturing out to Pikes Place Market. I was astounded by the selection of flowers, fruit and fresh fish. We stopped by the first ever starbucks coffee shop(pic). The water front restaurants were adorned with flower baskets(pic). Helen then took us to the Asian market so that Rich could get some good Sushi fish. She introduced us to "Bubble tea". Different and quite refreshing. We ventured to the west side of Seattle and walked the length of Alkyr Beach. It is a vibrant hub of social activites on the weekends. Rob discovered a tortorise out for his Sunday stroll - we could not believe how fast he moved off from his owner. By the time we returned to the campground the lake shore was quiet. We had a wonderful swim followed by sushi dinner.
