Lunch on the 75th floor

February 13, 2013

On Friday of our visit from out of town guests we got to have lunch at the Columbia Tower in downtown Seattle. We were on the 75th floor and it seemed quite luxurious. It was a clear enough day to see quite a bit of the city but no mountains (at least it wasn’t raining so I’m not complaining).

After lunch I braved getting close to the windows and looking down (I’m afraid of heights so my legs get a little weak). I attempted a look out the telescope but I was a little too short-so it goes.

More chocolate

February 12, 2013

I mentioned this past Friday that my out of town guests and I took the Theo chocolate tour. Here are a few more pictures of your visit. I would suggest waiting until your tour to taste any chocolate because you get quite a bit. We made the mistake (depending on how you look at it) of tasting chocolates, having more tastes on the tour, and ending up back in the tasting room for even more samples. Yes they were all good but I think we all agreed that we overdid it. It was quite tasty though and we all bought a few treats to take home.

A quick recap of the weekend

Here is a quick recap of our weekend (I’ll be sharing more later in the week). We had some friends of ours in town from Austin and we made the most of the few days we had. It was really fun and now it’s back to our regular schedules. Boo.
