Seattle Revisited

Well I've had some fun adventures here in Seattle, and here are some more pictures showing some of the fun things I've been doing here.


This was walking around downtown Seattle, there are so many old and beautiful buildings, thought this one was really beautiful and captured that old historic feeling around that part of town.
This is outside of the Seattle Art Museum, this statue just sneaks up on you! He's so thin from the side you don't notice him till you stand in front.
This was a beautiful fountain that's on the pier near the Seattle Aquarium, which I haven't gone to yet, but hope to make a trip to soon. The fountain was really unique and there were tons of people gathered around it, it was good I got this shot of it.
So they had these crazy sunglasses at some the stands around downtown, they weren't really sunglasses at all, but completely plastic with horizontal slits where the lens would be, they had them in all sorts of colors, I asked the vender, "what's the point?" they don't actually protect your eyes at all. He said they're just to look cool. I think I pulled that off pretty well. :)
This is the famous Seattle gum wall! I added my own contribution. :) It was so gross, but also really cool. people wrote they're names and all sorts of designs, I saw a few different countries flags and some hearts. It was pretty neat, I took a few more pictures.
Look at the gum just dripping from the window sill, pretty gross, but pretty neat too.
A detail of the thousands of pieces of gum contributing to the gum wall! Can you believe how much gum is there! I thought Seattle was all about recycling, I guess in a way, you could call this recycling, I mean, it now has another purpose! Entertaining.
There's a heart! How romantic.
After walking around downtown we went to a Mariners baseball game, my first ever! It was pretty fun, I tried my first garlic fries too, and wow, they were pungent! Lets just say I definitely did not need to worry about any vampires! I won't make that mistake again, but it was fun being there and I got some great pictures of the stadium and there was an amazing sunset that night!


Here's the group that went, they're tons of fun.
Here's me at Gas Works park, this is the park in 10 Things I Hate About You, where they have a paint ball fight. It had a nice hill so you got a great view of the city and the sunset, it was beautiful, but freezing that night, hopefully it will get warmer soon. :) We got a few pics, but as you see it was getting dark.
Well, those are some of the fun things I've been up to here, I've also been hard at work. :) well, sort of... I'm doing my job, and playing as much as possible.
