Greetings from Ballard

Friday, like Thursday, gave us gorgeous weather, so we met Adam for breakfast at Kitanda (acai bowls for me and him, breakfast sandwiches for the others), then we drove to Ballard, where we visited the Chittenden Locks, which were full of salmon heading into the fish ladder and harbor seals trying to catch the fish -- there were also lots of seagulls, some herons and cormorants, and enormous lion's mane jellyfish close enough to the surface to watch, as well as geese and squirrels in the gardens. 

We went into the town of Ballard for Salt and Straw ice cream and to visit a couple of shops -- there are lots of craft stores and some antiques and consignment shops -- then we dropped off Thandi for a nap and headed toward Adam's house, where we met up with Katherine and Pepper so we could all go to dinner at Panera. After eating, we went back to Adam's house to play The Estates while we ate coconut macarons. Now we're back with Thandi and all her energy! Animal pics soon, this is mostly us:
