Greetings from Edmonds and Fremont

Paul took Friday off because Adam was taking us whale watching on the same boat that we cruised on last summer, the one with unlimited hot chocolate refills and blueberry buckle. Given the season, we were expecting to see only gray whales, but we got to see two orca pods not very far out from Edmonds -- one hunting a seal, the other taking care of a baby whale. We ate lots of snacks and saw lots of seabirds, and when we got back to the marina, we walked back to the beach and saw some seals who were nice and safe from whales. 

We stopped at Scandinavian Specialties so Haley could see it and we could get some Swedish cheese, then we walked Pepper around Fremont and went to see the troll. Then we met Daniel at Cafe Turko, where we shared four kinds of hummus, two kinds of pide, felafel, eggplant, and two spicy dishes, plus fabulous drinks. When Daniel headed home, we walked back to Adam's apartment, and we ate some Scandinavian candy before heading home ourselves. I have lots of whale photos to sort but here are a few pictures of our lovely day:
