Kayaking in Seattle
I went kayaking on Lake Union in Seattle today with friends Keith and Lisl (& Chris who was in town from Winter Park, CO). It was fun to see our old houseboat, the seaplanes, bridges, and the other parts of the lake that have changed, such as the park at the south end of the lake. There are more changes for the park and sooner or later it will be pretty big and nice. Much better than a few years ago.
The parent’s UK tour
My folks have now toured London, bits of Scotland, and about half of Ireland but are now flying back to Minnesota.
The photo here is of them enjoying a pint of Guinness at the brewery in Dublin. They didn’t believe me that it really does taste better there, but they raved about how smooth it was.

Comedy at the Pimm’s Summerfest
Sunday night we saw the last night of comedy at the Pimm’s Summerfest in Holland Park. The venue was pretty interesting, since it was outside under a large tent, but half surrounded by an old Victorian building. Click on the Holland Park link to see it in the map. For those who don’t know, Pimm’s is the summer drink of choice at pubs all around London, and goes over quite well in Minnesota when we bring it there. The 4 comedians we saw were great (should have been 5, but 1 didn’t make it) and we plan to go again next year if they do it again.
