Such a Tourist

Eli visited two must see Seattle tourist attractions. First, the musical fountain at the Seattle Center. When I was a kid, this thing was MUCH steeper and the fountain part was encircled with jagged shards of something meant to dissuade us kids from playing on it. Didn't work. Now, thankfully, they have re-worked the fountain to be kid friendly. It was a blast.

Ooops! Almost got wet! (incidentally, he never got wet. He danced just outside the water's reach and was very happy with that).
Felix got wet.
Grifinn too.
Eli stopped to read my palm. The future looks bright.

And today we made a swing through the tulip fields of Skagit county. It's Tulip Festival time and they were breath taking. I remember ten, no, make that twenty years ago going to the tulip fields with my baby sisters who are now 19 and 21. Geez I'm old.




I've never asked him to smell anything, but somehow he knew what to do when I said, "Can you smell it." He made sniffing sounds and all.








What fun!
