Alison’s travelogue

Gnocchi & Ravioloi

Gnocchi & Ravioloi

A small plate with homemade Gnocchi and Ravioli on it. I wish there had been more, but it was a special event with smaller plate sizes!

Trapeze Artist

Trapeze Artist

The Pink Door has various sorts of live entertainment, depending on when you're there. This night was a trapeze artist that swung over the tables and did all sorts of amazing feats.

Outside the Museum

Outside the Museum

Outside the museum itself, you'll find a piece of art which on a clear day is a perfect picture opportunity of the Space Needle. Go inside the museum and enjoy much more art!

Gallop

Couple

Couple

A couple, upon their kite crashing, takes a break and watches the waves roll in. Sitting on a log, they enjoy the sunshine and empty beach.

Cloud Reflection

Cloud Reflection

The weather - as in all of Washington - changes every few minutes in Long Beach. Here the clouds are reflected in the Pacific Ocean. However, there is a glimmer of hope of better weather with the blue skies peeking through in the corner.

Driving Away

Driving Away

Heading down from Sunrise Park on a drive. You can see Mt. Rainier, the scenery, cars following us down, and our passenger. A beautiful, warm day in September.

From Capitol Hill

Picture Opportunity

Picture Opportunity

The Troll itself is a great picture opportunity and you can climb all over it for the pose of your choice! It's a great place to snap a few funny pictures to remember your trip to Seattle by. Or just enjoy a day outing when a local!

Troll Face

Troll Face

A close up of the face. The eye is shiny and can be quite intimidating!

Currently in back to school mode..

I am a law student, forever busy, slightly obsessive compulsive - though some would say overly, not slightly - a VW driver, a dog lover, a life lover, and trying to live my life to the fullest. I love to laugh, try new things, see new places, and smile everyday. I can never figure out where I'm from for sure - it's either New Jersey or Arizona based on the day. 10 years in NJ, 12 in AZ, and going on 2 in Seattle. If you have any other questions, you just let me know and I'll answer away.
