After a miserable night in Summit, our advice - never go, they woke up to find the slopes being rained on. Not hugely surprisingly they blew off skiing for the last day and headed back to Seattle to see what sights this great city could provide.
Breakfast in a restaurant where they filmed "Sleepless in Seattle" kicked matters off before they wandered down to the sculpture park. Frankly more pony is about the best once can say about that. It comes to a pretty pass when a sculpture park claims that its benches are part of the sculpture.
Although a couple of the pieces had the possibility of being interesting.
So with all of Seattle's sights exhausted by 1130 they turned to the only option, drink.
Two pints in a sports bar being served by what was probably a fat tatooed woman but could well have been a man kicked matters off before they retired to the hotel for some golf on its simulator. 5 more beers helped that experience and frankly they needed it with our subject shooting 78 over par after only 12 holes, they were playing the St Andrews Old Course but even so this was pretty pathetic.
A couple of cocktails and they headed to the SkyTower for supper in the rotating restaurant. Not really an experience that either feels worthwile mainly because they were both so trolleyed they cannot really recall it.
The evening was thankfully brought to an end by some elephant sized slugs of gin.
