Here is photos from day two of our trip to Seattle to celebrate our friend Robert's birthday.

Breakfast at Local 360 with Jon, Rob, Heidi, Patrick, Ben and Rachel.


A candy store at Pike's Place Market with a Gummy Bear made entirely from gummy bears.


Ben's favorite shop in Seattle which has film, comics and such collectibles - I found a dalik, a few doctors, the Tardis and even Amy Pond!


Love this...


Post Alley's infamous Gum Wall which is in the top ten most germ infested tourist attractions - it actually holds the number two spot, beaten only by the Blarney Stone in Ireland.


Heidi gets REALLY excited about Post Alley while Rachel tries to hide.


Post Alley amazingly empty...


Me and Heidi having drinks at Pike Place Brewery. And yes, I bought a seal hat because my head was freezing!


Ms Heidi stole my camera and wanted to capture my hat.


Ms Rachel being cute.


Pike Place Brewery's tin ceiling.




Yes, I am drinking a Stoli and 7up with lime and lemon at a Brewery...they were out of Lambic which is the only beer I will drink.


My hat became our trip's mascot...it was a seal after all. Here is Ms Heidi...


And Ms Rachel...


The birthday boy himself...


Ben would not wear the hat so Patrick showed him how fun it was..


I mean can't you tell how thrilled and happy he is!?


So Patrick shared it with Ben...


They are!


The motto for the weekend...


Bunnies are fun, especially alcoholic homicidal ones!


Pike Place Market




The kitchen at this lovely little chowder cart at Pike Place Market.


Downtown Seattle










Having a drink with the girl's...The Diller Room in Downtown Seattle. FYI - the Dillerlicious tasted like ass.






This was the asstastic drink in question...


So I ordered a raspberry kamakazi which was MUCH better.


Wandering back to Pike's Place for dinner.


Pike's Place Market had a whole halibut...


Dinner at the Pink Door. We walked in and saw this - a photographer taking a photo of a drink balanced on a statue's head...








My dinner was grilled swordfish.


Our waiter was sweet enough to take this: Me, Kevin, Kandice, Robert (the birthday boy), Ben, Rachel, Patrick and Heidi.
