HI! I'm Tour Guide Barbie!

Friday was a good day. One of my favorite families the Randall's came into town. Passing through Seattle, before boarding a cruise ship to Alaska. So we played in the city.
Denise and I have been really good friends since the 6th grade when she once lived here, now they live in Draper/S. Jordan Utah. I've been down there a few times to visit, but the last time we saw each other was in 2007 when Nisey got married. So this day was really exciting to see her again as well as meet Braxton her now 2 year old son!!!
2007
I met them in Seattle and played tour guide with some of the hookups I could manage. We met at the waterfront where we went out on an Argosy Harbor Tour. Which thankfully the Seattle sky cooperated with us. Not one cloud in the sky! We were able to see Mount Rainier, Mount Baker and the Olympic Mountains! After the cruise we enjoyed the Ye Olde Curiosity Shop (home to Sylvester the Mummy, fleas in dresses, Whale genitalia, and a 1920's Peep show) from there we ventured up to the Seattle Center hit up the Fun Forest for the Kids, ate lunch and then went up to the top of the Space Needle.

It was a great day! Hopefully IF I ever move to Utah we will be able to spend more time together. But for now they are cracking crab, enjoying glaciers and hopefully not getting sea sick.

Hmmm...I've been a tour guide many times before, but somehow I missed the flea dresses and whale genitalia. I'll have to be more observant next time...
