Willy's Weekend: Pike Place

Bound by the rules for all tour guides in Seattle, a tourist must be shown Pike Place. So off we went, bright and early at 10:00am-ish. One of the highlights had to be finding the perfect parking spot when we got there. Time it took to get the parking spot, 0 minutes. Location of parking spot: right on Pike street, by the 'public market' sign. You can't get a better parking spot than that on a Sunday!!! I think Willy must be the perfect lucky charm for finding parking spots... because yesterday at BSquare, we got the perfect parking spot as well! 2 out of 2 is pretty decent statistics!

Anyway, so parking spots aside, we had some chowder for brunch, which was pretty good. This place we went to had a bunch of awards up, so maybe that's why it was so good.

Also so for the first time what I'd like to call the 'space age washroom'... This was a stall that was made of stainless steel, and had a space capsule look to it. You pressed a button to open the doors, and it opened automatically (and closes automatically too). It was a pretty interesting stall I have to say. There were many bums around there though, otherwise I would have taken a movie of this stall. It was really cool, even though it was pretty smelly inside...From now on, the 'space age washroom' will be added to my itinerary for all future tourists coming here.. :)

Dropped Willy off at airport after trying out the 'space age washroom', then bought some groceries and went back home to sleep. Woke up at 5:00pm-ish and started to steam fish and make the normal Sunday dinner...
Result: The fish turned out great, but everything else I cooked that night was burnt! :(
