A fun "P" day.

On our P day we were able to go with the Dunkleys to Seattle. I am glad we went with them because Diana grew up there so she knew where to go, how to get there and what to do once we got there. A view from the front window of the car. In the middle of the picture you can see the space needle, this is as close as we got to it. That will have to be another day's adventure I guess.
How many people does it take to figure out the parking meter?


Our first stop was PIKE PLACE PUBLIC MARKET. There are tons of stores all over the place, we just barley scratched the surface.


Molly would have loved this place.



The big gold piggy bank.



This is a famous fish market, when ever someone buys a fish the men that work there throw the fish around at each other and hoop and holler. It's quite the sight. Talk about having fun at work.



Pretty expensive!



These fishes were huge.


I don't know what in the world this is.


These guys were making donuts, you can stand there and watch them and then indulge.


Harry, enjoying a hot out of the oil donut.....Delicious!


Next we took a walk on the beach



The seagulls are very friendly and tame.



We had fish and chips at Spuds. It was Delicious.


The view from Spuds.


After we ate we took a ferry ride over to Vashon Island. Sammy Knotts served on his mission for a while on this island. It was a really pretty place. It cost us $40.00 for our car load of people to ride the ferry! It only took about 20 minutes to cross. It's the only way to get to the island.

There were alot of barges out in the water. I thought they were carrying big boxes but they were really rail road cars. That tells you how huge they were.



Out little group on Vashon Island. Left to right..Harry, Blake Dunkley, Me, Brock Ball, Diana Dunkley and Ralph Dunkley.


Here we are.


There were lots of little crabs.


My collection of shells I found on Vashon Island.


I bought this old recipe box at Pikes place. I had fun going through the old recipes.


I also found this little old book, I though it was cute. Anyway we sure had a fun day. I felt like we were on vacation. We sure had a fun day, we didn't get home until 11:00... a little late for missionary standards.
