SEAFAIR '11

Friends and Lake Washington ... sums up Seafair in Seattle pretty well! Then add the Blue Angles show to top it off as an experience for sure.  We had the most wonderful weekend soaking up the sun, hanging out with friends, and enjoying our time with each other.  We couldn't have asked for anything more.


This was the first of the last five years 
that we got to see the Blue Angels show 3x ... Incredible to see the fly directly over you!


***And for all my Bachelorette readers ***
We were at a party next door to Chantel's parents house where they filmed last year, so I had to take a pic.  She was out on the deck the following day with her new boyfriend who is supposedly much cuter than Brad.  And, yes, they have a man-made beach :)


Now, I just wish I had a day to catch up on my sleep .... and get out of my food coma from Salty's brunch on Alki.  It was probably the most impressive buffet I have ever been to, and with a price tag of $44.95 we all tried to get our moneys worth!!


Seafair, always a Seattleites' favorite, sad to see you come and go so fast, 
but Gabe and I sure did enjoy the THREE DAYS of fun!

  5. I love Chantel from the Bachelorette! Salty's has an amazing spread, but it keeps getting more and more expensive. Did you get your money's worth in raw oysters? lol :) That's what I do!

  6. I love the Blue Angels and I am bummed that I did not see them this year (only heard them practicing). I was in E. Washington all weekend so missed the Seafair fun. Looks like you had a blast- and so funny/random that you were by Chantal's house!

  8. I forgot to mention. Have you been to Sunday brunch at Ivar's Salmon House? The one near Gas Works? They have a really great spread too for around $26. I really like the view from Lake Union of the Seattle skyline. :)
