Visit from the girls!

The end of Feb I was lucky enough to have visitors! Marie and Chris flew in for a 3 day visit. We had lots of girly time, hanging out, going to Pike Place Market, eating good food and trying not to bug Erik.
Here we are the first day. You can barely see the Pike Place Market sign in the background.
Inside the Market. The fresh flowers were starting to come back again with the daffodils!
Here we're having lunch at Ivar's Fish Bar. Too cold and rainy that day to go outside and feed the gulls.
But this Guy didn't understand that! He squaked at us the whole time through the window!
Here we're going into the International District/Chinatown for dinner. Erik's actually with us operating the camera.

Fried Chicken feet anyone?
The next day we relaxed in the morning and then walked around Mercer Island dowtown area. I didn't take any pictures until later when we went to the flagship store for REI. It's HUGE and has some great landscaping outside, including this waterfall!
Here the girls are trying to run away with this cool kayak!  

And we saw the Space Needle but no one really wanted to go up in it this time.
The last day was Sunday. We went to church in the morning. The day turned out to be gorgeous, warm and sunny so before lunch we walked all over my neightborhood. We went to Luther Burbank Park and took a picture by that gorgeous flowering plum tree (or flowering apple, or something! It's super pretty anyway.)  You've seen it in a previous post.
Thus ended the wonderful weekend!! Thanks for coming to visit me girls! Come back anytime!
