I will praise you, O Lord, among the nations; I will sing of you among the peoples. For great is your love, reaching to the heavens; your faithfulness reaches to the skies. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let your glory be over all the earth.
Psalm 57:9-11 (NIV)

A City Love

Well folks, I had an amazing time in Seattle!  I was so fortunate to have the opportunity to wing my way to the west coast for work last week and even more fortunate to have some time to explore the Emerald City!  Great food, friendly people, and beautiful scenery.  Here are a few of the highlights from my trip, in no particular order:

  • Exploring busy Pike Place Market with a coffee from the original Starbucks in hand
  • Looking out over Puget Sound from the top of the Space Needle
  • Listening to Harrison Ford narrate the King Tut exhibit at the Pacific Science Center
  • Vigilantly watching out for McDreamy, Fraiser, Sam Baldwin, Edward Cullen, and Mark Driscoll
  • Singing along with Captain Zawacko on the Seattle Duck tour as we drove by the city's best sights and then plunged into Lake Union to see the gorgeous skyline, Gas Works park, and the Sleepless in Seattle houseboat
  • Wondering around the flagship Nordstrom store and drooling over the Kate Spade selection
  • Bringing the sunshine with me from the east coast (it didn't rain while I was there!)
