Our Last day in Seattle

We knew there were a lot of things that we'd miss as soon as we left Seattle.  Places like Cupcake Royal, King's hamburgers, Cedar's Indian food, Honore, Walrus and the Carpenter, the list goes on (basically all we did here was eat). We decided to do as much as we could for our last day in Seattle, spent with the lovely Michelle.

We started out the day at Top Pot donuts.  Soooo good, maybe not as good as Voodoo donuts in Portland, but still, soooo good.  Especially if you love donuts as much as me.

After a visit to the U district we headed to Ballard, where we hit up the best place to eat in Seattle (even GQ says so, so yeah, legit) The Walrus and the Carpenter.  I'm not one for seafood, so the frist time we ate here I didn't really like the oysters, but everything else was really good.  We ate here a 2nd time, and all of a sudden I loved them.  So the third and final time we came here, I was so excited to have the oysters.  They serve them raw, and they taste like they just came right out of the sea.  We got there at 4 so we could get happy hour oysters, and ordered a ton.  Ugh, so good!!!!!

After that, we walked around Ballard a bit, said our goodbyes, and headed over to Gasworks Park.  On our way we stopped at the Fremont Troll, which I had only seen from the car before.  We stopped for a little photo snappin.

Here is Seth with his little baby camera.  He bought the Rebel T2i for the hi definition video, which is actually really awesome.

Last time at Gas Works, at least for a while.  They were having their annual peace fair so there were lots of hippies and they were all awesome.

That's it for Seattle, we miss it, but I am excited for new things.
