Hello everyone, hope you are enjoying a nice long weekend!
The other day was hubby's birthday, so to celebrate, we went to our favorite restaurant in downtown Seattle!
It was a beautiful night, perfect for walking along the waterfront.
The Seattle skyline is pretty amazing! Notice the snow covered peak in the foreground? That is Mt. Ranier, the tallest mountain in the state. It looked just stunning at sunset!

We discovered Anthony's several years ago, when we stopped in Seattle enroute to Hawaii. It is right on the water, and the food is amazing!
Like many downtown eateries, they also have a walk up fish bar. We are real fish and seafood lovers, so we are lovin' it here!
If you are ever in Seattle, I would highly recommend a visit to Anthony's on the pier!
I had halibut cakes, with garlic mashed potatoes. Delish! Not to mention shrimp cocktail, the best clam chowder, wonderful sourdough bread (which is really popular here, love it!), and the most delicious Baily's Irish Cream chocolate mousse! Did I mention that we both were totally stuffed?
We love walking along the waterfront enjoying all of the incredible boats and yachts.
A gorgeous sun set over the distant islands.

When I first saw this large metal sculpture from the front, I thought it must be some strange piece of modern art! Then I walked around the side, and noticed that it was a very large "wind blown" umbrella!
Thanks for joining me on our little outing! We are really having fun exploring our new home, can't wait to share more photos of beautiful Washington State with you!
Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
