In the middle of October Daryl decided we needed some us time, so he arranged for the children to be taken care of while we spent a couple nights in Seattle. We stayed at a classy hotel down by the 5th Avenue theater. Saturday morning we went to Salty's in West Seattle for their amazing brunch. We did what I like to think of an urban five mile hike up and down Alki beach, and even went by our old home. We really loved seeing where we used to live. It is gorgeous. Since they remodeled the Space Needle we went up to check out the new glass floor and railings. It's still windy up their, and way too expensive to go up. While we were waiting for our turn to go up the Space Needle we checked out the Chihuly Glass Garden. Most of the time we wondered how on earth they got all the glass art there and installed without breaking any of it. We also went to a couple haunted attractions that evening and generally enjoyed being child free for a little bit.
