What a gorgeous day in January: sun shining, blues skies, green grass and so many green bushes and trees that it looks like springtime! I’ve even seen blossoms.
Perfect day for riding the gigantic Seattle Great Wheel, with a spectacular view of Seattle and Puget Sound.
It’s not always so sunny at this time of year, so Jean and I took advantage of it and explored Pike Place and some of the nearby shops. It was mild enough that I saw women with bare legs and sandals. That is unheard of in winter where I come from.
I wore my new mod inspired tunic that I bought for this trip.
I often buy something and wear it home.
A great 60s style that I can wear with my peace sign pendent I bought this summer in NYC at the Brooklyn Flea Market.
The view of Seattle and Puget Sound from the top of the Ferris Wheel is spectacular! We went around five times!
Do you like Ferris Wheels?
This one is my favourite!

Thank you Brian! We’ve had some mild, sunny days and anything is better than shoveling snow, scraping ice off the car and walking through slush! We went to a Tory Burch store (my first time) and took some photos.
Have a great day!

Thank you Maggie! I’m so glad I’m here, the weather isn’t as warm as Mexico, but it’s sure better than Ontario! Glad to see you swimming and having fun in the sun. See you in the cold north soon.

This one is totally safe, enclosed with glass. Normally, it only goes around three times, but it wasn’t too busy so we got two more times around. 🙂
We’ve been enjoying vegan restaurants every day. Today I had macaroni with vegan cheese, better than any dairy I’ve ever tasted in my life!!

Such limited choice of vegan restaurants in this area…..certainly have to seek them (it) out. But it can be done, especially if you have a vegan friend in the know.
