seattle morning

we stayed at Joe and Jessica's house. they were very kind to let us crash there while they were unfortunately out of town in california, so we didn't get to see them. but their house was so cute and cozy, we really appreciated the awesome accommodations.

we ate breakfast here.

cocoa, crepe, coffee cake

cookie, yes, for breakfast.

this park was right up the street from their house. it had an awesome view of the downtown skyline but it was a very foggy morning so it doesn't look that good in the picture, but you get the idea.

the journey to seattle

Brandan got off work at 3 on friday afternoon. he got home and we finished packing up the truck and left for seattle around 5. we hit Ontario right on time for dinner and decided to try Brewsky's Broiler and their beer-battered fries as recommended by Brandan's dad. it didn't disappoint, it was delish. since i am obsessed with taking pictures of my food, here's a couple. i got the pulled pork sandwich and Brandan got the taco salad.

we hit the road again and for some reason, didn't stop again until Kennewick...we seriously almost ran out of gas.

see? his truck only has a 12 gallon tank and we filled up 11.86.

we had good weather most of the way there and Brandan got sleepy about an hour out so i took over the wheel. he fell asleep and it started raining a little, no biggie. then it started raining a lot, kind of scary, but there were only a couple other cars on the road so not too bad. then there was fog like you wouldn't believe, i couldn't see a thing. i tried to play it cool, but before i knew it i had to wake brandan up so he could help me navigate. i ended up taking the next exit and making him drive again. anyways we ended up making it there safe and sound around 1 am.
