3/28/14

Spring break is almost over!  Lydia had come home from school not feeling well, Friday. She went to bed shortly after she got home and slept on and off through the night. She had aches and felt warm, though she had no temp. She was quite better in the morning!
Saturday we drove up to Seattle. We stayed at a nice hotel that Ed's job paid for, by Pike Place, again.  When we arrived we sent Ed off to Dusty Strings, a music store in Freemont, and Lydia and I rested. When he came back we ate and then went for a walk.
Sunday, after a yummy breakfast at the 5 spot diner in Queen Anne, we went to the Makers Faire at the Music museum near the Space Needle. We spent a couple of hours there, doing some hands on stuff, Ed doing work stuff. After that we walked around outside the museum, and then over to the Childrens Science Center so Lydia could get a souvenier. We went back on Monday to play.
We drove to Chris and Matt's for dinner We ate some good food and took a walk with the dogs after dinner, with Matt.  It was an early turn in, we were exhausted from a day spent putting on some miles.
Monday the boys headed to work early and we left around 10. We went back to the Science museum to play. After that we found a park to play in and eventually got back on the road and were home around dinner time.
Tuesday, Lydia went to her friend Brooklyn's house until dinner. Wednesday she went to the Children's Museum with Brooklyn, Ed and I went on our own adventure, we got passes to tour the Pittock Mansion and then walked around the Alphabet District. Things Lydia does not enjoy.
Yesterday we returned the favor and took Brooklyn with us to OMSI, Portland's science center and then to The Kennedy school, an old school that is now a hotel and theater. We ordered some food and sat on couches to watch "Nut Job".  It was great!
Today will be more productive. Ho hum.
Pix will follow soon!
