Seattle again

Again up at 6am, few emails, back to bed. A few hours later, breakfast was remaining pizza. We went out around 10am. We had a coffee (Hood Famous Bakeshop), 18$.

We walked to the port, took a ferry to Bainbridge Island, return ticket 11.35$, 35 minutes. Windy but great views from the ferry.

On the island, we saw the Japanese memorial; a minibus took us there, for both 5$. After a short walk around, we got a ride back from a volunteer lady there.

Bainbridge Island Japanese American Exclusion Memorial

She took us to the viewpoint. On our walk, we stopped at Pia the Peackeeper Troll, a library with a Japanese garden. We bought lemonade from a stand 5$, two girls collecting money for a concert. Bought a few souvenirs for 16$.

We ran to catch the ferry. Somebody spoke with us on our way back. On the other side, we had lunch at Ivar’s, clam chowder and calamari, 40$. A bit of an institution, a bit of a tourist trap.

We went back to the hostel for a bit of rest, watched a game in the square. With a bus full of Bosniacs heading to a gathering at Fisher pavilion (sarma, baklava, coffee, speech).

From there we walked to 1st&Bell for an event by BH Fanaticos, entrance 40$, fan goods 60$, round of beer 25$. After some time, we went up to the terrace. Everybody went there. There were some fan songs, creating signs for the next day, talk to a few people. I also spoke to Aida, a Bosnian girl who visited all countries except two (Congo and Mali).

At 1 pm we moved by bus to Meyer, met some Montenegrins, a round for 60$. At 2 am we went to bed.
