Oh The Places We'll Go!

Enjoying the good weather and great food!

The perfect beach day, sunny, 90 degrees and a light breeze...

My dear friend made the long trek from California to visit me this last week (actually she came to visit all her Seattle friends but I like to think she just came out to see me).  It felt like old times going on Seattle adventures and hitting up the best happy hours and I took a Thursday and Friday off just to fit everything in.  This visit to West Seattle and Alki beach was very memorable since I had never been to this amazing little corner of the city.  It had a very California feel (or at least I think it did since I’ve never been to California; it’s the way I’d imagine California to be) and had a boardwalk lined with great open air shops and eaterys.  A visit to Husky Deli provided some of the best homemade ice cream I’ve ever had, all nestled inside a fresh homemade waffle cone.  The coconut, complete with real chunks of coconut, and the rum truffle ice creams make an especially delish combo.  A BLT sandwich complemented the meal quite nicely.  After sitting in the sun for hours and doing a little longboarding we faced the sad fact that we were sunburnt and dehydrated and had better head back home before we turned into human raisins.

Bacon lettuce and tomato awesomeness!
