- - Rocket Man and Stay with Me * *

So, my best friend and I went to Seattle over the weekend...
These pictures pretty much sum up our weekend : 


 Haha, no, but really, I had an AWESOME time. I'm not one who loves the city life all that much. But indulging in it every now and then is pretty cool. And Seattle was an awesome place to do it. We stopped along the way to our hotel at some outlet malls and I spent too much money. But we found some awesome deals and some awesome items. We stopped at the Lululemon outlet which after I found three awesome things which were all on sale, I made myself leave as I knew I would blow my budget in that one store alone. Christina got some cool Dr.Who stuff and I got some Sherlock stuff!! Made me super happy.
We arrived at the hotel and it was beautiful. Super old style which I loved. We walked around town for a bit and found a Barnes and Noble! It was so cool. I love book stores and this is now definitely one of my favourites. I even bought my first book on London to slowly prepare for my trip! We had dinner at a lovely Italian restaurant which I can't remember the name of but the food was delicious. Maybe it was because I was starving by the time we ate but either way I enjoyed every bite.
We got back to the hotel and relaxed for a few minutes as we were both SUPER stuffed. We finally decided to go downstairs to the Hotel bar and order a drink. Well....Let's just say it was MOST DEFINITELY a drink. One was enough haha. So after we finished we went back upstairs and eventually passed out.
The next morning we woke up to a horrible downpour of rain. But we pretty much said "F*** it" and got dressed and checked out of the hotel and went down to pike place market. We found the original starbucks and got a drink and then a cinnamon bun and sat in a cute little cafe and waited for the market to start.
The rain had stopped by now and there was blue sky and sunshine! I must say, we were pretty lucky weather wise this trip as it was supposed to be horrible outside, but I think we had sun for 85% of it!
The market was pretty cool, we didn't buy anything but it was neat to just walk around and see some of the cool stuff.
We started our route home and stopped at Cabela's on our way! I was in love with everything in that store. I want it all. I even found Ryan a cool thing for Christmas which I'm very excited to give to him.
So, all in all, it was a great trip. I don't think Christina and I have been on a big adventure like that for far too long. It was much needed and I'm so happy we did it.
