susandennisTonight we went to an old old restaurant in the International District - Tae Tung. I've always known about it but never gone. It is as run down and shabby as last night's place was bright and shiny. But the food was amazing. I mean fabulous in every way. So delicious. It has officially ruined me for all other Chinese restaurants.
Before that we went to the Space Needle which was fun. I had not been up there since 1991 and they are finishing a major renovation. It was really neat and fun.
They take your picture like all tourist places BUT they do it digitally and free.
We had a lovely time in the massive gift shop. They have done a great job of assembling it but could stand to spend some effort in helping the clerks understand how to staff a retail operation.
We rode back to town on the monorail and then walked home. We did a bunch of house things on my list. Right now my watch says I've done 19465 steps. My feet agree. It was a really nice day but I'm beat. 'night!

I was on a road trip with my childhood friend's family to Seattle where her married sister lived at the time. Exciting times eating in that revolving restaurant on top - quite a big deal then!
