evila_elfOkay, so I got a bit (a lot) sidetracked between my last entry and this one, hehe.
k. So....we are at Sunday I think.
We went to see the Gay Pride Parade that was pretty much right at the base of Michelle's apartment building. That was close to where it ended, so we wandered up the street aways. Despite it being so close, Michelle hadn't been before. I thought it was pretty good, though didn't really have anything to compare it to. Tons of floats, a rollerskating penis, big men in a bathtub....hehe
There was also this school bus that said something on it like safest drivers and the people in the bus were making it rock, so it was bouncing down the street. Kinda ironic, lol
Both of us were having problems with our cameras. I ran out of room on my digital card and the battery kept dying. If I turned it on and off, I could get off a few more pics. Between us we did pretty well.
Someone wearing a dress made out of balloons.
A Blue Ball float
The very start of it with waving flags
The penis on skates
A giant poodle. And you see that guy in the dark jacket taking a picture? He was in over 10 of my pictures. I edited him out of a bunch of them. He even took a few with his girlfriend so that the parade was in the background of the shot.
The bears in a bathtub
A wedding cake. I love this picture
kk, enough pics or I will be here all day.
If you want to see more, you can see both mine and Michelle's pictures combined here:

After that, we wandered down to the waterfront to look at some sculptures there. I was more interested in the scenery:
Then we went back to the apartment.
Oh, somewhere between the parade and the waterfront, we got some little dog treats for Mindy (Mom's dog) ate pizza, and I got new batteries for the camera.
I can't really remember what we did that evening. Watched some TV and looked over the pictures and wrote and....guess that is all lol. Oh, and watched a 5 second blurb on the parade on the news. Which sucked and wasn't worth waiting 10 minutes for.
kk, Monday. I think I was leaving about 2 or so.
I had wanted to see Michelle's apartment balcony/outdoor area that is on the 4th floor. Has a lovely view of the Space Needle. I had been telling myself that I wasn't going to be all touristy and take any pictures of it on my trips to Seattle, but I just couldn't resist here--the wanna be photographer in me did a little squee:
Then we hung out a little more, went to a store, then was dropped off at the train station.
Then I went home. Damn it is boring around here. Or was, but I will leave that for a new update that I will type...some time.
