Guess Who's Coming To Dinner



Company has arrived. Whitney, my sister and Melissa my best friend of, hmm.....20 years got to the Seattle/Tacoma airport yesterday afternoon. After getting luggage and ourselves back to the car we headed into Seattle and pointed the car toward the Space Needle. Since they disobeyed me and did not wear their dinner clothes I made them change in the backseat of the car as we were driving downtown. Not to worry I have dark tint on the windows. We finished up in some random parking lot fluffing our hair and bartering jewelry back and forth for the evening.
It's a 40 second elevator ride to the restaurant and you get a fun view of the city on the way up. When you step into the lobby of Sky City everything is deceivingly normal but when they take you to your seat you step into the dining area and you instantly feel like you've had one too many drinks because everything is moving. Thankfully you get used to it and you are treated to a 360 degree view of the city, Mt. Rainier, Elliot Bay, the Olympic Mountains, etc. Our meal was great and expensive but worth it. We were treated to a free smoking sundae at the end of our meal and how can you turn down a free smoking sundae even if you're stuffed with lobster, potatoes and bread?



It's Thursday morning and I have finally gotten everyone up and about. We are ready to start a new day of exploring. More soon!

What the heck is a smoking Sundae.

And it does not look like the person sitting behind ya'll in the first picture is following a dress code.
