We got into Seattle yesterday afternoon. It was a very long day. The flight was fine although the Omaha to Denver leg started out a little strange. In the flight attendant’s pre-flight instructions she informed everyone that it was a non-talking flight. There was an awkward silence except for a loud guffaw from me which embarrassed Christi. The flight attendant corrected herself and said it was a non-smoking flight but I think the damage was already done. I think everyone assumed her mis-statement was actually a commentary on them.
Christi and I have spent quite a bit of time talking about Mason. This is probably a violation of the first rule for a couple’s vacation but we can’t help it. Right now is a tough time to be away from him as he is learning so much every day. We probably compounded our homesickness with the movie we chose to see last night. We saw “I am Sam” which is about a mentally challenged father fighting for the right to keep his daughter. Anyway, the subject of the movie is a long exploration of what being a good parent is all about.
It turned cold here this afternoon so I might look for indoor attractions more than I would have otherwise. Tonight we are going to the Space Needle. We have reservations for dinner so it should be fun to look out at the Seattle skyline.
