At the north end of Seattle's Lake Union...

 

     

 

 

 

After lunch at Ivar's Fish Bar on Lake Union we stopped in at Petosa Accordion Company & Museum. This is the premier accordion shop in North America...

A certain hat wearing fellow... a sometimes shadowy figure... taking a serious look at these fine accordions...

       

 

       

 

 

 

We drove through the center of town to the waterfront at Pike Place Market...

 

       

 

 

 

 

Pike Place Market...

 

       

 

       

 

 

 

We hiked up to a shopping district, browsed about in the Anthropologie store, then walked back down to Pike Place Market in a fierce wind blowing off Puget Sound...

 

       

 

   

 

 

Driving cross-town...

 

 

We attended a music service at University Presbyterian Church in the University District...

 

 

After the music service at UPC we stepped around the corner and watched Bill Murray in "Lost In Translation"...
