First there was the pizza!! |
Then there was Mark Twain to go with the photos! I did not attend his funeral, but I sent a nice letter saying I approved of it. — Mark Twain |
Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear - not absence of fear. — Mark Twain |
Kindness is a language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see. — Mark Twain |
Man is the only animal that blushes. Or needs to. — Mark Twain |
Few things are harder to put up with than the annoyance of a good example. — Mark Twain |
Some people bring joy wherever they go, and some people bring joy whenever they go. — Mark Twain |
If we were supposed to talk more than listen we would have been given two mouths and one ear. And so ended a beautiful day and visit! Hope you all have a wonderful week! |

Your pictures are beautiful. I enjoyed them. Doylene
Looks like a wonderful day! Have a great week.
Your harbor is beautiful from either side! It's nice to see the city and ships. Twain sure knew how to give a backhanded complement!
Beautiful photos, Sylvia, I do hope I get to see Seattle some day. I love all the skyline shot. Pizza looks yummy...
It looks like you had great weather for your visit. Thats because you sent the rain and clouds south, to us! That's ok, it may clear out the haze and give us some interesting skies.
I'm so ready to come back again :) Beautiful. Have a great day my friend :) Excellent photos :)
Fantastic shots of your beautiful city Sylvia. I enjoyed this sequence very much.
You have wonderful friends. The views of the city from the other side are beautiful.
Seattle is so photogenic, and you've captured its best once again. Here's hoping the rest of your week is as nice as this day was.
The pizza made me hungry. You have wonderful friends. The city shots are awesome. Thank you for sharing

I love seeing the city from that perspective!
Not only the Needle but Pike Market is a place I just want to visit. Great write up and love the light in these over the water.
I'm happy you had such a nice time with your friends, Sylvia!
That is a BIG city. Don't think I ever saw pictures of it before. Such a difference between all the entries. Such an eye-opener for those of us that don't travel much.

Oh my, Seattle's skyline looks gorgeous and the pizza...mouthwatering! Twain is so witty, love the quotes as always. Have a nice week, Sylvia!
Awesome skylines, Sylvia and so sharp. I smiled when I saw the pizza - we had pizza today - "Greek special" - when we came back to Sweden.

Hi Silvia, Great skylines and always interesting quotes. (My town is much, much smaller!)Have a lovely week.T.
Wonderful to have friends come for a visit.
You cannot go eat out anymore without seeing someone taking pictures of food before they eat it. Am guilty of that too. Times have change eh?That pizza looks so tempting? Is that bacon?
Sylvia, wonderful photos from your piece of the world. The pizza looks good. The ferry reminds me of my recent trip to Bainbridge Island to Seattle. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful week.
Your posts are always not only beautiful but insoiring too.
such great captures, Sylvia! That pizza got me hungry! Your city is really beautiful! have a good week! My world entry is here.
The pictures are very beautiful. I can just stare at it the whole day and dream dreams!
More than you might understand it is always like visiting an oasis of the Good and Beautiful to come here. Thank you.
Great pictures, lovely pizza, love the ferries and cargo ship and of course the Mark Twain quotes.
I want to move to your wonderful neck of the woods, Sylvia. Its always lovely to see your yummy Seattle.
Now I have to go and raid the fridge.. ta, ta.
Fantastic set of photos! You made me hungry with that photo of pizza :)) I think I need to leave my table right now to eat something hahaha!
Great photos as always, Sylvia. I remember visiting that market when I was in Seattle earlier this year, it's quite the fun area. Seattle really is such a beautiful city. Have a great week!
I especially love your cityscapes. The clean lines, the feeling that I can touch those buildings, the subtle light....exquisite.
Oh Sylvia, so sorry to hear about the forgotten camera episode -- how frustrating! I remembered my camera today but it had NO card in it, argh! And of course we'd gone specifically to take pictures. Ah well.
Seattle's beautiful as always -- my son is itching to get back (okay, nagging...
:-D
Oh, goodness, now I've *got* to go make some pizza! That looks so yummy! The pictures are truly beautiful!
you got me at pizza. yum yum. and what a better way to enjoy the pizza than to eat it with that sunset view.
the skyline is fabulous and the pizza looks yummy!
Fantastic shots. Thanks for your comment on my blog, Sylvia. I'm taking a bit of a holiday this week, so I'm not getting much of a chance to log on. That's why I was a bit late with the 'My World' link and not visiting many blogs. Cheers.
Thanks for sharing these beautiful photos of your part of the world. Thanks, too, for the great quotes. Now if you could only have shared your pizza with us.
I love the shots you took, beautiful skyline.
Sylvia, these shots are as good as yours. My camera acts up sometimes, and even with a camera, I can't take pictures.
A great post of your beautiful world again Sylvia.
Hope you are having a lovely week.

Hi Sylvia! Long time no see :-) Glad that I found my way back to your graet blog.
Beautiful picture of Portland and that pizza looks scrumptious, I took liberty to take a generous (cyber) piece.

Ooh, that pizza looks good. What a beautiful place you live in.
it is interesting to see all the shapes and colors of the buildings. You don´t really expect such a variety. :)
I just watched Jamie Oliver in America. I am surprised that some people don't know what food to eat.
Hmmm, Enjoying this...

Seattle is beautiful from any angle and your friend has as good an eye as you do!! Thanks for sharing (and glad to be back in the beautiful Pacific Northwest for a short while anyway)>
