Here's a view of the hotel from high atop the Space Needle.
After spending the night together, the kids, Danielle and I set out to see some of Seattle. Within walking distance of our hotel were the Experience Music Project (EMP) and the Space Needle.
Photography is not allowed within EMP so I have no pictures of Mitchell and Stephanie jamming on guitars in a sound room and no pictures of Danielle on the electric drums. The four of us took a turn in a recording booth to talk about music. For 1.5 minutes we shared our experiences of "First Concerts" -- from the Beach Boys, to N Sync and dc Talk. If the folks at EMP have no objections, our recording will air in the Oral History exhibit.
After lunch we bought our tickets to ride up the glass elevator 520 feet to the observation deck of Seattle's Space Needle at a rate of 10 mph. What a view!

Thursday, as we arrived in Seattle, the high temp reached 82 F and at game time it was a beautiful 75 F at Safeco Field. Friday's high was 77 F so we had a comfortable day to walk around and enjoy this part of the city.
Mommy/daughter preciousness.
No wind on the observation helped me relax while so high.
(It was not Starbucks.) 
Back on the ground we pose on some hot artwork and get ready to part ways.
The kids got a good taste of Canada without crossing the border! Thanks, Danielle.

I have a question, how did you block out my plate numbers? haha.

You like the way I customized your plates? I did it using PowerPoint. I inserted the picture on a slide and then placed a text box over the plate. I chose a grey for the textbox fill and typed in your new license. Finally, I saved it as a jpeg so I can work with it as a picture rather than a publication.
It's a lot faster than having some prisoner pound out personalized plates for you.
I'm glad you liked the trip!
Glad you guys had such a great time. DOn't know why you had to spoil it with baseball though !!!
