After a long, long Friday night of staying up burning CDs for the rental car, and a long, long Saturday of airplanes, airports and power naps, we arrived in safely in Seattle and found our way to
wolffire and
gr0m1t’s (very lovely) house without incident. After a bit of catching up we walked to nearby Circa, a West Seattle alehouse with supremely tasty food; I’m very satisfied with my choice of a Boundary Bay Blonde and the halibut tacos, a nigh-religious experience after a day of airplane food.
Today we have an appointment at Chateau Ste. Michelle and a bit of sightseeing planned, and then dinner at Beàto. In the morning, we head off to the other side of the state to start the wine visits in earnest. We’re very happy to have made a better rental car selection than on our Napa trip (do not drive a Ford Taurus on windy, windy roads, kids); the comfy seats should be a nice bonus as we drive all over creation this week.
More later — must eat breakfast and get going.

how long are you in town for?
Can’t wait to see you guys on Saturday ^^
We’ll be in Walla Walla and Yakima this week, and back in Seattle on Friday night, then we have a red-eye out on Saturday night. We’re meeting up with
dendacien on Saturday, but I don’t know the full details of where or when yet. And Friday night as yet has no official plans.
Email me off-LJ and I’ll give you our mobile numbers if you want to get together…. mpirnat (at) gmail (dot) com.
Likewise!
