A few days ago I had the gift of a day to myself. So I hopped on the train from Bellingham to Seattle and hung out at Pike Place and walked around down town. The train drops you in Pioneer Square so it was a bit of a walk, but good exercise and a good time, visiting the "big city" again. After all, I did spend the first 34 years of my on the "Eastside" (Bellevue, Kirkland, Bothell).
Just as a warning, I decided to travel light, including my choice of camera lens. I only brought a very small, 50mm fixed lens meaning I was limited to fairly narrow shots. It was kind of a challenge to see what I could find...
Enjoy!

Can you go to Pike Place without taking this picture? |
|
Loved the color! |
|
Was trying to catch the reflection of this sign in the ceiling. |
|
The famous "Smith Tower" -
what I didn't know is that the Smith Tower IS the train station (where I got dropped off) |
|
Of course you know the very 1st Starbucks store is on Pike Street |
|
Again, loved the color here... |
|
|
These guys were awsome...and the irony did not miss me. Four guys with little
money or material things of any kind, singing about Jesus and Faith. Loved it |
|
And lastly, the "gum wall." Yes, those are all pieces of gum and this is only
about 20% of the wall |
