KEEP CLAM

Flew to Seattle today…forgot how gorgeous Seattle is. We went to Ivar’s Acres of Clams for dinner. Their motto is “Keep Clam”—perfect for Henry. He bought the hat and has not had it off since. Dinner was superb: I had the halibut (just for the…. As my mother would say), and Henry had the clam/crab/shrimp stew. Delicioso!!

The view from our table was wonderful....out on the dock!

Henry had a master plan that we would walk from the Hotel to the Pier to embark. Please make note of the incline on this hill. Too late I forgot that I had the ability to actually measure the degree of the rise on this street (yup there’s an AP for that). I had visions of What’s Up Doc with the bags flying down the hill, careening off cars in the road, landing in the water next to the ship.





Oh, yeah, I am so walking to the ship to save the $10 cab fare. Not a shot.

(Incidentally the cab ride was $7.50)
