We crammed our last weekend in Seattle with as much stuff as we could: Disc golf, museums, Space Needle, and spending some
time with the Sandpoint newlyweds, Anna and JT. The honeymooners were married in Anna's hometown of Sandpoint but they live and work in Seattle.
Disc golf in Seattle is great when it is not raining. We visited Fenwick Park, Lakewood Park, and SeaTac Park.
Here is a leopard slug that looks like it escaped from a Wes Anderson movie. It was found on the way to tee 1 (or tee 17 if you actually knew the right place to start) at Lakewood Park disc golf course.

After all that outside time, the rains came and we did our indoor time.
The Seattle Art Museum is about to open its Yves St. Laurent fashion exhibit. Here is Axel on the virtual runway.
Axel enjoyed this room, which had many art as optical illusion pieces.
The rains broke in time for us to head down to Seattle Center to visit the Space Needle and the EPM Museum.
The EPM was designed by Frank Gehry- the same guy who designed the Guggenheim in Bilbao, Spain.
We met Anna down at Chinooks at Salmon Bay for the most delicious brunch. Here is Axel at the really cool dock area behind Chinooks- lots of neat boats here. Later, after a dinner in the Space Needle, we met up with the newlyweds again for tasty beer, fresh popcorn, and good conversation. Axel provided side entertainment in the form of bottle flipping.
Dinner in the Space Needle was really fun.
