Seattle Vehicles

I have encountered some interesting vehicles in my time here in Seattle. Twice I have seen The Mystery Machine from Scooby Doo (separate incidents). I saw a Mercedes Benz with deer horns. And I've seen a tricked out VW Beetle with spikes on it. There is also a large saw-like fin on the roof (the light on the top of it says "Not A Taxi").

Pink Monday

Today is Martin Luther King Jr day and I have the day off work. I took the occasion to bus over to the U District to catch some Qdoba and walk around The Ave a bit. Today is a sunny, clear, awesome day outside. You can see all the mountains and there isn't a cloud in the sky.

I saw this on the way to the bus stop. People in Seattle seem to love to stencil things on the sidewalks. Some are weird, some abstract, but I really like this one, a pink heart and crossbones. I think it is interesting that it is pink instead of black or red.

Caffe Mocha

I have discovered a beautiful thing. In Seattle they have this thing called mocha coffee. It's like hot chocolate meets coffee. It is awesome! I gave Espresso Vivace Roasteria 3 bucks and they gave me this amazing elixir of caffeine.

Santa Pub Crawl

Marques, Justin, Chris and I went on a pub crawl around Seattle dressed as Santa. I had a beard, it just didn't last long. There were easily over a hundred Santas and we went to 7 or so bars, a mall and a playground. There were all kinds of Santas: Jedi Santa, Jesus Santa, Pirate Santas, etc. There were also Mrs. Clauses, Elves, Reindeer, Snowwomen and my personal favorite, a guy in "milk and cookies" pajamas, handing out Oreos to the Santas. My favorite part was the looks on people's faces when a hundred Santas stop traffic while crossing the street. I absolutely loved it. I hope to participate every year from now on.
