Missing are the coffees and my breakfast sandwich. Sarah thought the coffee cake was too sweet. I liked it except for the fruit filling. At Cafe Zoka in Snoqualmie…

Saturday was started with Brunch at B&O in Capitol Hill. Even though we had free tickets, I couldn’t get in the mood for Bumbershoot. We decided instead to check out the new Seattle Aquarium.

Capitol Hill Street Art…

Neon Jellyfish….

More neon Jellyfish. The exhibit was a massive circular tank that was embedded in the floor and rotated through several colors…

Can’t remember their names… Odd little fish with horns..

One of the exhibit ceilings…

The main underwater viewing area…

Walked the pier for a bit afterwards, but the crowds were suffocating. Drove back to Snoqualmie and had dinner at Mike’s Cascade Grill. A place I usually avoid as I associate it with work business meetings. I was adventurous and had the Snoqualmie Steamed Clams, and Sarah had the Fried Calamari. We both had a cup of Crab and Corn Chowder. All dishes were great, especially the chowder.

Visited the Tattoo Expo at the Seattle Center on a whim after brunch at B&O Espresso…

Spent the weekend cruising around on my motorcycle. Saturday was a trip to Kirkand and the mega-Target, with lunch at Starbucks. Sunday was brunch at Borders in Issaquah followed by the movie Miami Vice which was, surprisingly, acceptable.

These last two days have made me look forward to getting my on-order helmet of super-thin carbon fiber and kevlar. After getting past the fact I was going 70 mph on the freeway with my body only a few feet away from the pavement, the hardest part was simply trying to keep my head up in my huge damn helmet.

All in all, though, it was quite a fun weekend…
