Kayaking to miss seeing whales~
A couple of weeks ago, Jon and I went with my group of interns to the San Juan Islands. We got to try sea kayaking for the first time! When we booked the trip our main reason for going was to see whales, but we weren’t so lucky. We saw a bunch of other things […]

Seattle Fun
We’re pretty behind on our blogging, but we’ll try to catch up today! A couple weeks ago we had some visitors from Provo! We had a really good time while they were here! The first day that they were here we saw all the down town sites. Checked out Pikes Place, Seattle Center etc. Then […]
Hong Kong Bakery
We discovered a little Hong Kong style bakery this week. It’s called Regent Cafe and it’s so good! The egg tarts are super yum and they have those HK style cakes I love!

When we walked in, we were impressed by […]

It was even featured on the news. To begin with, […]

Right after we parked we passed by a few stores that were preparing for lion dancing. They were hanging up lettuce with red envelopes and […]
The Museum of Flight
We decided it was about time we got out of the house this weekend so we decided to go to Seattle’s Museum of Flight. It was a great museum. They had a section about space exporation (they even had moon rocks) and a gallery full of all sorts of airplanes. They had a second gallery […]
