Seattle then Portland (again!)

On November 10th we left Lakebay to go to Seattle.  Mario, Ryan, and Michael stopped at the American Automobile Museum and had a great time looking at all the cars.


Genny, Jason, and I went to the King Tut exhibit.  It was really cool to see all the things they found with him. Apparently since he died so young, he wasn't very well known in his time, which is why thieves didn't rob his tomb as much as the other Pharaohs.  We spent about an hour and a half going through it...well worth the price of admission!


On Sunday, we robbed our own piggy bank and got tickets to the Seahawks game.  It was a bit chilly, but we bundled ourselves up, and enjoyed the game.


It was a good game (the Seahawks beat the Jets 28-7 - sorry Josh), and we were plenty warm.  We wound up parking across the street from the stadium, and getting there and back was relatively painless.
On Monday we left the Seattle area for Portland, Oregon.  Tuesday was Michael's birthday and he had asked to go out to an Italian restaurant.  We decided to back to Portland to go to this little Italian place that Mario and I had tried (and loved!) when we were in Portland in October.  It's called Abella Italian Kitchen in Wilsonville, and if you're ever in the area, we highly recommend it.  Mario and I even went back there for dinner on Friday!  You can find them online at www.abellaitaliankitchen.com.

We left Portland on Saturday, the 17th to go to the Redwoods.  It was rainy, but still beautiful.   I'll post about that tomorrow, with lots more pictures!  Sorry for the lack of them today!
