Quentin is staying with us for a few days.
We went to Lowell's for breakfast, then wandered around the Market. We walked up to the Rainier Tower, looking at the architecture of it and the new tower being built next to it.
Next stop was the Seattle Art Museum, we had a few minutes before it opened, so I sat and sketched the Hammering Man.
Quentin enjoyed some of the exhibits.
He especially enjoyed the interactive activities in the Special Exhibit: Victorian Radicals. There was a projector where you could arrange small pieces of plastic where they were arranged like a kaleidoscope and displayed on the wall above. It was great fun.
Darrell and Quentin went up into the Smith Tower, while I stayed in the Irish Pub below and sketched. They joined me afterward and we had a nice Irish lunch.
We took the light rail back to Westlake and then walked back to the Market and the car.
Unfortunately, we drove down to Alaskan Way where it took us the better part of an hour to go the half mile to get to Hwy 99 and out of town. The traffic was at a complete standstill because of the construction, or should I say deconstruction of the old viaduct.
When we got home, Quentin and I made a pillowcase from the fabrics he had picked out.
