It’s been a while since I’ve posted, so just giving everyone some tid-bits to munch on. I’ve been out and about in Seattle with my parents, and I’ve seen a great many sights that I usually don’t get to see by myself (on account of it not being fun when you’re by yourself). While walking around the city, I managed to stumble into the world’s very first Starbucks, which is located at Pike Place Market. Pics following (sorry for the bad quality, was relegated to using my cell phone for pics because my idiotic self forgot to bring the SLR):

Not very exciting is it…I was relatively surprised. Although, the only differences between it and a normal starbucks is the nice gang of african-americans hanging outside singing a-cappella and the brown starbucks sign and logo (as opposed to the green circle with the lady) seen throughout the store. It’s also packed with tourists and a special blend of “pike place market” coffee along with a gang of baristas ready to take your order. Service was slightly slow, but it was a nice change from your everyday Starbucks. It’s located on Pike Street, right across the street from Pike Place Market.

The sun showed itself for the first time in 3 weeks, and everyone was out to enjoy the beautiful weather. (Yes, for all you nonbelievers, there ARE days where it doesn’t rain in Seattle)

Now, I’m at home, sleepy from my extended adventure in downtown.
