Greetings from Bellevue

Adam had to work on Thursday and Daniel had an eye doctor appointment, so Paul and I went to Seattle Center in the morning to visit the glorious Chihuly Garden & Glass, then had lunch at Grecian Corner before meeting Daniel. We drove to the Bellevue Botanical Garden, where we saw many flowers, tall evergreens, a swinging bridge over a ravine, and bunnies before going to meet Adam at his summer place of residence and heading to the Lodge at Bellevue Square to have dinner at the glorious Cactus. We have just returned to the hotel from Daniel's apartment and I caught a Lunatone on the way, which is a delightful way to end the day!

It was very bright in the glass house.
