Happy Birthday!

Thursday, July 27th, 2006

Today you turned three!

When you grow up

What would you like to be?

Whatever it is you choose

Is great as long as you are happy.

Lots of love to you, our Dear Son.

To my Seattle / Vancouver / Bay area readers

I don’t imagine hauling two small children around as a vacation, but that’s what we’ll be doing in the up coming future. It will be our first vacation in nearly two years. And there’s nothing that beats having a local tell you things regarding a place. So if you could kindly provide some hints or whatnots, I would be eternally greatful.

- How is rush hour traffic? And what are the time frames of ‘bad traffic’?

- Which route(s) to absolutely avoid during rush hours?

- What are the must-see, must-do things?

- What are some hidden gems that a tourist wouldn’t be able to find easily?

- Best restaurants? (must be kid-friendly)

- Best sushi in town?

- (Seattl-specific) Which bridge is better / easier for getting across, 520 or 90?
