The Great Pacific Northwest Adventure, Day 9

Breakfast was at Skillet, by far the most hipster place we have gone so far.  I ordered the Disassembled Corned Beef Hash.  Corn Beef HashIt was perfectly cooked corned beef, roasted onions and fingerling potatoes with two eggs over easy on top.  Accompanied with a hot coffee made for a perfect breakfast.  Steven ordered biscuits and gravy which looked like it contained enough calories for a month’s worth of eating and Lib ordered a side of flap jacks.

After breakfast we headed to Ballard Coffee Works and then off to do a little shopping (yes, none of us are big shoppers, but some times it’s necessary).  We passed a microsoft store and I couldn’t resist stopping into to try Vive, the new virtual reality gaming program.  It. was. Amazing.  First I went through the night sky and then I was in a virtual reality gun fight with aliens.  I played with an art app where I drew my name in cursive and then could walk all around it.  The experience was surreal.Busy Fighting Aliens  However, it compounded a pre-existing headache that could only be relieved by a nap.  We skipped the afternoon bike ride in exchange for recovery time. 

For dinner we met up with Dwyer and John at 10 Mercer.  The food was mediocre and not worth an exhaustive review.  We then headed to Bluebird for ice cream.  Bluebird was worth the review.  I had coffee ice cream that was creamy and cofffeey and cold and wonderful.

It has been an amazing vacation and it was over too quickly.  It has been so much fun spending time with Libby and Steven (and Baker).  I will probably cry tomorrow at the airport, except my flight leaves at 5 am and I can’t cry before I’ve had my morning coffee.

Cheers Seattle until next time!
