>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>WHERE'S JOHNNY JET?<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Greetings!  I just returned from a fantastic weekend in Seattle! We stayed at a hip hotel: The Seattle W. This place was PHAT!  What made it so great was the service, location, amenities, and the most comfortable bed around.  The only negative was breakfast! Don't waste your time or money. Amber and I had an American breakfast (I had ham and eggs and she had some fritata), not only was it nasty, but it cost $35.  When we finished I said "Amber you ready to go get some breakfast now?".
WEATHER: It was supposed to rain most of the weekend, but we got lucky!  It only drizzled for about ten minutes. Unfortunately,  we weren't so fortunate with the temperature (54-68), because it was well below normal.
AROUND TOWN: One of the first stops we made was a short walk to the wharf, so Amber could get some fish and chips (When the girl is hungry watch out!).  I went next store to the ol' ice cream shop, and got this FAT hot fudge sundae in a homemade waffle cone.
When we finished we walked a few blocks up and came to the world famous: Pike Street Market.  Here you will find a crowd waiting to see a customer order some fish, so it can be tossed across the room/counter. It's awesome to see a 20 pound fish being thrown like a football. The quarterback (fisherman) yells "This fish needs a bag", and then fling. The crowd cheers like they their home team just scored a touchdown.
Down here you will find everything so FRESH! From the crabs to the  flowers (They are inexpensive too).
Friday Night my cousin Nicole (who lives there) and her husband Joe invited us for dinner at our hotel restaurant (just a coincidence).  It's  called Earth and Ocean, and  the chef is supposedly top 10 in the U.S.  I don't know about top ten, but it was good. I recommend the killer mashed potato's.
Saturday I worked. But that night, Amber and I went out to another good restaurant: Icon Grill! The food and decor were spectacular, and the smores for dessert.....forget about it (ummm ummm).
We capped off our evening by going to Queen Anne to see what the news people call the money shot (this is where Tom Brokaw and the others go to tape) to get a great back shot of the Seattle skyline.
This was my fourth trip to Seattle and it gets better each time.  Places I still want to go but haven't had time: Safeco Field, the Space Needle, EMP (Experience Music Project), and a ferry ride to check out some of the islands.

SIDE NOTES:
When I got back to New York I had lunch with a world famous travel writer; Tim Winship. Tim is a very cool guy and I encourage you to sign up for his Frequent Flier Crier.
Monday night I went home to Connecticut for dinner with my sister (those Sunflowers are awesome aren't they?) and Dad (I bet him five bucks he couldn't hit this bee's nest in the tree. Don't worry nature lovers you think he could hit that? That is what I call making easy money:-)

NUTS:  Have you ever flown to Hawaii on United and fell in love with the mixed nuts and fruit snack? If so, you can now buy them at the grocery store (I bought them at Ralph's in L.A.). They're made by fisher and look like this.

TIP OF THE WEEK:   By Chris McGinnis
Flight Delays
It's important to know that in their contracts of carriage, the airlines make no guarantees that they will get you to your destination on time, no matter what the reason. The only time you can expect any remuneration from an airline for not getting you to your destination on time is when you are involuntarily bumped.

Your first stop in a delay should be to head to the nearest pay phone and find out why the flight is delayed. Ask the gate agents. call the other airlines (don't waste your money, use their 800 numbers); see if their flights are experiencing similar delays. Look around at other gates. Are their flights leaving on time?
