I had an excellent day doing touristy stuff around town. Vanessa and I started the day off wandering around the UW campus and University Avenue. Then we met up with Tina and headed down to the International District to wander around the Uwajimaya market and the Wing Luke Asian museum. Tina and I took a detour to check out Fremont, a hip artsy neighborhood where a big Troll lurks under the Aurora bridge. Linn and Judy joined the rest of us for dinner at a Korean place on University later that evening. And finally, we checked out the Queen Anne area where Judy lives, and I was so pleased to take some great scenic shots of Seattle. Yay Seattle! I like it.

The Gardens. Closet bubble tea-aholic.

Super Hard? What?! The Fremont Troll.

Mean Trolls.

The Aurora and Fremont bridges. Fremont = "the center of the universe."

Dinner with my Seattle buddies: Linn, Tina, Judy, and Vanessa.

Chillin' at the Queen Anne Hill city overlook.
