walkabout

Been Planning this for a while now. The trip to Seattle for the annual St. Patrick's day party at my Dad's house. Guiness flowing, corn beef, Dubliner Cheese...What more could you ask for? I know, Music. And Dancing. Well that was there too. So It's time to get a move on. It's 4 pm and I'm off work. Been Making coffee's all day and serving and eating delicious pie's and sandwich's. But it's time to hit the road. But wait... the driver is not here yet. This is alway's the problem as I do not Drive. I'm always waiting for that car that's gonna show up any time now. Hour and a half later (after sitting in a not so shabby sunlit spot on the sidewalk out front of Zack's Coffee Shop) here comes Alex.
Ok now were on Our Way. Federico, Jane Alex Hanna and I. Here is Fede posing beautifully as we begin our trip at 6:30 pm. Miraculously and I really can not explain this but a Six and a half hour trip was made in Four and a half hours without speeding. Must Have been a time warp. Anyway, we arrived to my Dad's at 10:30 that night.
So The next Day was march 20(Vernal equinox) The day of the Party! But first I had to show my lovely multicultural friends the city of Seattle. Fede- Spain, Jane-U.K., Hanna-Finland, and Alex Texas. We started by going to my favorite Irish store called Galway traders. Then we sat outback in the sun and made music in the clover grass. We did this foer a while. Hanna on Bongo, Fede on turkish hand drum, Jane on Penny whistle Alex on Guitar and I Danced. But then it was time to pick up Lobelia! We were Headed to Pike Place Market with Six people in a Five seater car.
It was beautiful. We found parking and Went down to the sun shiny street market were I enjoyed a deliocious Burrito and we met up with my other friend David.



So we head down to The water Front. I throw my troubles to the Sea and she washes them away. I feel welcome. I am now walking Bareboot playing the turkish drum along the Seattle sea side. With the sun shining and my great people by my side I am happy. Lobelia and I decide to lay on the pier like otter would in the water. We continue to walk down the waters edge. Enjoying the spring weather on the first official day of spring. My Hanna Girl and I made a beautiful tree. It was now time to get to my Dad's Party. So we picked up wine at PCC along wit some other randoms such as liquid Bulk soap. I Love PCC!!! So we go. When we arrive my Aunt thought I was Drunk because of my hyper excited state, but really I was just overly happy. Ohhhh Tne Cheese!!!!!!! So Good!
