Seattle

Took a much needed break to Seattle with Annie over the Remembrance Day long weekend. We arrived in Vancouver thinking we had all the time in the world to eat Burger King because our flight was "delayed," only to find out that it really wasn't and we missed our flight. Luckily, our flight was overbooked so instead of having to re-purchase tickets, we were rewarded for our stupidity with vouchers, hotel, food and shuttle service. We did lots of shopping, visited the Space Needle, Pike Place Market, University, South Centre in shady shady Tukwila, Chinatown, rode the Monorail, got into a fight with the shoe manager at Nordstrom, was asked if we were on America's Next Top Model LOL, ran for the bus in the pouring rain, through a construction site and all, ate really bad thai food, raided Walgreens for cheap makeup and got tricked into buying a giant cookie, wanted to eat said cookie but discovered it made it's way into the garbage, watched keeping up with the kardashians with a leaking toilet, had girl talk, spent forever in the biggest Forever 21 I have ever set foot in, took silly pictures with rice picking hats while thrifting, ate sushi made by all Spanish people, and taught Annie the rules of hockey <3

It rained every single day we were there except on the last day, but we only had time to grab lunch before the long flight home. I brought the biggest suitcase imaginable but basically lived in the same outfit everyday. It's definitely hard to live there without rain boots and an umbrella!
