Day 52 & 53, Seattle, Wa

Seattle, nice place to visit but... Ok, if anyone tells you it always rains in Seattle, they are telling the truth or at least that was my experience. We had some sunshine but the clouds and rain were always hanging close by. The RoadShow visited Seattle to work on a consulting project for a local customer with whom I signed a non disclosure agreement so that's all I can tell you about that.
While here, we did get some down time and visited the Pike Street market. Cool place and most important home of the original Starbucks. MECCA AT LAST! It wasn't much different than any other Starbucks but it was definitely a Kodak moment. Many interesting folks here in Seattle, maybe it's the lack of sunshine or depressing weather but people watching in downtown Seattle was quite an experience. While grabbing a quick Starbucks, I saw a fistfight, two guys get arrested, a man with a voice so high it made the local dogs howl (he was quite the comedian), cross dressers, a vampire and a duck. Actually, the duck was cool, it was a duck vehicle and looked so fun we decided to take a ride. The driver was a hoot, in fact he made the ticket price well worth the investment. I snapped some quick video on my iPhone and spliced together the highlights with iMovie. Check it out!
