We are on our mad dash south of the border for an overnight stop in Seattle, mostly to see some more architecture. Earlier we were at the Seattle Center to see the Frank Gehry 'building' (doesn't seem quite the right term for a large piece of crumpled metal with a monorail going through it - sorry Steve, I mean the comtemporary form exploring novel curve formats...). We didn't go up the Space Needle, but wandered round it. I really liked the International Fountain there, and the Gehry really is very impressive. And makes for great photos against the flawless blue sky. Beginning to think they don't have clouds on the west coast. I'm on my second sunburn.
Today's tip: never forget to put suncream on the backs of your knees.
Speaking of photos, we're on our first photos download. That's how many photos Steve?
500
Tee hee. But that's the last teasing of Steve's photography, I promise. This is the poshest internet cafe I've ever seen - classical music, a free half hour with drinks, large dark wood desks to sit at. Luxury!
Only 3 days to Japan...
