Dining in the Sky

As you may all know, I went to Seattle last month. Oh yes, this is a long overdue post. Blame it to … I don’t know.. :D

Anyhow, one of the highlights of our trip was our dining experience with Sky City Restaurant. The restaurant is a bit pricey but when it comes to good food if I have to  shell out my last penny, I would definitely do it. :D

Sky City is located atop of the Space Needle.

You can now imagine that the restaurant is circular in shape. The observation deck is just above it. If you are eating at Sky City your trip to the observation deck is free, otherwise you have to pay $13 for the elevator trip. So our food bill was less twenty-six bucks . ;-) Yay!

Sabi ni sister Ikay lakwatsera daw kaming mag-jowa. Well, hindi naman masyado. Konti lang. :D

Oo ito nga, naglamiyerda kami sa Seattle. Nakikisakay ako sa luggage ng aking jowa. My JLC had a conference there so sumabit ako ng bonggang-bongga sa luggage niya. Unlike in our trip in New York few years back, hindi nagresearch ang lola niyo kung saan pupunta etc.    I did visit the official website of Seattle for visitors but that just it. Hindi ako bumili ng libro. Walang silbi ang libro! Lol.  I knew that Mr. Nonsense is from Seattle. Kinapalan ko ang fez ko at nagtanong-tanong sa kanya. He gave me some tips on where to go and what to do. Thanks Jesse! Sana matuloy ang EB natin with Buraot next time.

Anyway highway, we got to our hotel at around 2 PM last Saturday. Juice ko day, I thought I would never see Seattle – the flight was bumpy. Akala ko babagsak na ang eroplano. Pero sa awa ng Dyos, buhay pa naman kami. :D When we got there, the rain had stopped just for us. Yes, ganon ka mi ka espesyal.

I have tons of things on my plate right now. I need to catch up with work, etc. So for now,  here are two of my favorite pictures I took from my phone. Due to time constraint, ito lang muna ang titigan niyo mga kafatid… Phone-travel shooting it is! Wala pa akong time magdownload ng mga litraks sa camera ko.

Seattle’s fall foliage is just breathtaking.  I promise to bombard you with pictures of my Seattle trip in my next post. :D   I have a lot of stories to tell you too. I’ve met some interesting people. Too bad I did not meet the two McDreamies of Seattle – Mr. Nonsense and Buraot – though.  But anyway, there’s always next time, right?

Talk to you later, folks! Hope you had a wonderful weekend! I will bloghop soon! Pramis! Mwah! :D
