Hi! I’m in seattle right now and we will be getting on the plane in about four hours so I thought i had better write about what we’ve been doing.
Jane arrived in Portland last Friday and she was very impressed by Helsers (breakfast cafe) and Powells (the biggest ofline bookshop in the world!). Then we went to Orcas island.
We were on orcas island for four days and we went swimming in lakes (but not the sea [but we did paddle in Oregon])
We got to seattle two days ago and saw Pike Place market, the first ever starbucks(©®©) and went up the second tallest sky scraper in Seattle.
I was very excited to hear that the chambers street museum will open today! I can hardly remember what it was like!
bye now! CALLuM
PS this is what a flamingo looks like:

Hmm. That was a very random flamingo.

Oh yes, pink flamingoes are multitudinous in downtown Seattle. I’ve seen many a flock there. You have to watch out for flamingo poo, it rains down like pink snow sometimes.
