The lobby of our hotel: Hotel Olympic Fairmont<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
I love Seattle. I need to move to a big coastal city. Sure, staying at the Fairmont adds a rosy glow to my visit, but I love the whole West Coast feel. I feel it in San Francisco, Vancouver and here.\u00a0<\/div>\n
Yesterday, my first Seattle morning, I got up early and worked out in the hotel gym. I went across the street to the 4th Ave. Starbucks (my very favourite Starbucks ever: big, historic building, comfy chairs, good people watching) and worked on my thesis revisions. It was the very best place to work on my thesis.<\/div>\n
\u00a0Peter and the girls went swimming, out for breakfast and toured floor 73 of the tallest Seattle building while I enjoyed my work time.<\/div>\n
The afternoon was spent walking around the down town. We had lunch and went to floor 40 of the tallest building in Seattle and went to the world’s highest Starbucks (only in Seattle). We toured Pike Market on the water front and then went to the SAM <\/i>(Seattle Art Musuem)–was the best–will post more pics of that tomorrow. Many cool exhibits. My favourite was by American performance artist, Nick Cave “Meet Me at the Centre of the Earth.” \u00a0The exhibit housed many cool costumes made to fit Nick–made out of stuffed toys, fun fur, yarn, buttons , etc.\u00a0The videos of him dancing in the costumes were so fun.Of course, I am drawn to the paintings–so excited to be getting back to my painting. I love to paint.<\/div>\n
We ate supper at Wild Ginger–Asian fusion. Most tasty and our waiter was the best.<\/div>\n
