So, here’s the scoop! I had such delusions of grandeur, in regards to eating like I was Templeton the rat, and energetically jaunting all over the great city of Seattle.
Here’s what I forgot… I’m not 20 years old anymore, in fact, I’m far from it!
Did I even think to take all those pictures that I bragged I would?
Ha! Double Ha!
While we did have a really wonderful day, this is more of what it looked like,
We went, we saw, and we took the town… our speed!
I never got around to taking any pictures because I was busy rubber necking all day, from the scenic train rides to people watching… and this morning, my neck is telling me about it!
It took three different trains, in order to conquer the Bite of Seattle, friends! First we caught the Sounder, then Lite Rail, and lastly, took the Monorail, just to get to Seattle Center.
Once there, the two of us shared exactly one, really yummy pulled pork sandwich covered in coleslaw, and a strawberry Ice-cream Mochi dessert, and then turned around and headed back for the train… lol!
But, I did see the funniest thing ever!
When we arrived at The Bite, we noticed how everyone had been buying these enormous baby bottles, filled with their favorite refillable drinks. Folks, there is nothing stranger than watching hundreds of grown adults walking around, sucking on baby bottles! Whoever designed the containers, even put the drinking straw right next to the giant nipple, on top of the bottle… no joke! I couldn’t bring myself to pay the $36 for a large one, which was what most people were doing, and then have to lug the giant drink container throughout the city of Seattle.
If you want to know the truth, I think we actually had more fun on all the train rides together, and then ending the day by buying ice-cream cones from McDonalds, on the way home!
Just sayin!
I did sleep like a baby last night! You wouldn’t believe all the stairs we had to climb. I wore myself out on all the stairs, as we traveled between all the different train connections.
All in all, it was a beautiful day spent with my favorite person.
Have a blessed weekend, everyone!
Sounds like a great time thank you for sharing your adventures. 😊

Sounds like you had a great time. I’d do the same thing — travel all that way for a taste of something. Then decide to come back. For example, on our anniversary, we drove three hours to a local tourist trap, had lunch, and drove back. And we had a great time doing it. Sometimes the journey is half the fun! Especially if you’re traveling with someone you love.
