Last Friday, Capitol Hill

I met Kelsey and Yuko for lunch at Hillside Quickie – it was Yuko’s last day in Seattle… bummer.

Hillside Quickie has the most delicious, gigantic sandwiches you can imagine. They’re 100% vegan but don’t let that deter you if you prefer the carnivorous lifestyle. These are seriously good.

When I was taking a picture of this alley a woman stopped and asked us if we were tourists (haha sorry guys, I guess that’s the trade off with this camera) and offered to suggest some other cool alley ways I might like to see. She got a little flustered and embarrassed when I told her we live there but I said I’d still take the recommendations. I don’t really see anything wrong with exploring your own city better.

We were walking back down towards Eastlake and I hear Kelsey exlaim this loud “AHH” behind me and turn around to find her collecting a bunch of pennies she had spotted on the ground. You ought to hear about this girls found penny collection – she must have enough accumulated luck to live forever or something.

And a couple of odd things spotted on the way home…

Definitely a first to see something like this..

And these extremely cut-off cut-offs were just hanging from a tree right next to the road. I bet those don’t leave a lot to the imagination when worn.

What do you think about the idea of being a tourist in your own city?

  1. I wish people were that nice in San Francisco. People just stare at me, then the direction that my camera is pointed and then at me and walk away. And I then I hear laughter.

  2. Allison! I like the new blog banner :) I’m flying off to Seoul this Thursday! Waku Waku!

  3. I love the new banner and the way these pictures turned out. hehe, Kelsey’s so cute : )
