Quick overview of my trip so far...
  • On the flight from Boston to Seattle I overheard a conversation from the row in front of me
Passenger 1: "So why are you going to Seattle?"
Passenger 2: "To visit a friend of mine, Ray Ozzie"
Passenger 1: "Really?"
Passenger 2: "Yes, my husband and I are friends with him and his wife.  Do you know him?"
Passenger 1: "No, I just know of him"
  • I saw Notes 7 in use by a business traveller on my way to the bathroom.
  • There were lots of university students flying home for break, they ALL were using Macs, I did not see a single person under 25 on the plane using a PC laptop.
  • The bus from Seattle to Vancouver is inexpensive, and pretty easy to use.
  • Two days in Vancouver is not enough.  My heart belongs in this city for several reasons. ;-)
  • Seeing the Spirit of the West perform on St. Patrick's day is a lot of fun.
  • Just checked into the Fairmount Olympic Hotel in Seattle.... wow!  This staff knows how to treat a guest!  The doorman looked at my luggage tag when he took my bag from the car, and called me by name as he opened the door.  The receptionist came out from around the counter to hand me my room key, and walked me to the elevator.
