Friday morning we made our way to the foot ferry, and took a 10 minute crossing to downtown Seattle. We walked along the wharf and checked out some different shops, and then found ourselves at the gum wall. The idea of the gum wall is completely nasty...made me think of middle school desks, but it was actually quite fun and artistic once you got past the fact that it was chewed gum. As a bonus, Roy and Chelsie even found their names. We tackled Pikes Market after that. It was of course packed beyond belief, but it was still fun to see all the funky people, smell the beautiful flowers, and look at the huge amounts of fresh fish. We enjoyed a fresh baget sandwich, and a yummy eclair from a french deli where we couldn't pronounce a single item. We did a bit more shopping, and then we grabbed a quick gelato on our way back to the ferry. I had strawberry basil and cream gelato that was to die for, Roy thought it tasted like a plant. After walking around the whole day, we were all done. So home to enjoy pizza and a movie while the kids hit the mattress. Good day!
