The Iflands have long known that I am a lover of hearts. When I see a heart, I pause and take in the realization that I am loved. This image appeared on my breakfast table that morning.

There sure was a lot of love in that home. This is me with our Goddaughter Annalynn Joy.

And here is D with Theo and Anna.

We nipped home for a quick lunch after church and then headed downtown to see the sights.

We enjoyed our Executive Tour of Nordstroms, courtesy of Orion.

I included this picture of an Asian Food Court in the area. It was cleverly decorated with brightly coloured milk crates that I thought was so clever.

We had spent many hours at their famous market on previous trips, so we didn’t linger this time.

When we were last in Seattle there wasnt a lot to take in on the waterfront other than the market. The revitalized area was beautifully planned and executed.

It was packed with people enjoying a last glimpse of summer weather.

Perhaps the cruise ship market was the inertia for the investment in the waterfront.

Silas & Anna. This was my only pic of Silas, who was tremendously busy with his own artistic endeavours.

For our Thanksgiving dinner, Rebecca had made reservations at a fabulous Lebanese restaurant called Tanoor. I had never tasted Lebonese food before but it reminded me very much of trip to Israel years before.

The family were wonderful tour guides, pointing out buildings and landmarks all weekend. That evening, we stopped at a favourite place to see the city lights.
