Our Christmas

We celebrated the winter solstice more than Christmas this year. But of course nice people we know gave (mostly) Aki a lot of presents. Aki has been very much looking forward to opening them.

Seattle Urbancraft Uprising Craft Show




Aki helped us make magnets and pins to sell at the event!

tadaa!


After a lot of reparation for the event, we are off to Seattle. Even though it was a long 3 hour drive, Aki did very well in the car by eating snacks, singing, and asking if were there yet over and over.

our first destination was Aviation Museum in south of Seattle. It was a free admission night and it was better than we expected!

Amazing collection of many different air planes and helicopters.



There were even spaceship section.

Exciting moment of entering the downtown Seattle. Beautiful!

We stayed at a handmade wagon in someone's backyard that we found at airbnb.com. So cute!

Inside there is a built-in bunkneds

Aki was so excited about staying here! He called it a round house.

There were a rabbit and chickens in the backyard.

There was another rental house and a swing and a slide. The owner built everything!


Fun bike to ride around too.


Inside the mail house, there were bathroom, dining space, sofa, drum sets!

We went to Pike Place Market and had the best clam chowder.

I must say the highlight of our trip was riding Ferries Wheel by the bay!

The view of the sunset from high up was awesome.

Beautiful city view.


Aki was so excited and also mesmerized by all the lights.

Of course "Again again!"

    
We found a merry-go-round!  



The event started on Saturday and papa and Aki played all day while mama worked at the booth.

Aki's very first time ice skating!

He got a walker and soon enough he was able to stand on the skates right and move around.

So many things to see and do here at the Seattle Center.

Riding a monorail. The driver was very kind and Aki stayed very close to him and watched how he operated the monorail.

Watched a play of Shakespeare.

Lots of Holiday songs and dance at a stage.

Enjoying warm tea and performance.

Live Peru music

Many sculptures everywhere.


We had a lot of fun in Seattle and APAK did very well at the event!
