After pissing it down with rain most of last night and this morning, it’s a beautiful sunny day again in Seattle! The clouds have cleared away and despite it being rather chilly, it’s a beautiful day here. It’s also my last day here, leaving me with a thoroughly misleading picture of the city, but I’ll take it anyway. I wandered around the Olympic Sculpture Park and down to one of the parks along the waterfront. I sat on a rock in the sunshine on the shore of the Pugot Sound, enjoying the view and listening to the water against the rocks. Seriously, my idea of heaven. One of the amazing things about Seattle is the natural environment. Despite the annoyance of the hills in terms of walking/riding a bicycle, the hills, the lakes and the water in general makes for an incredible landscape. In addition, there are a million many parks here! Ok. I exaggerate. I just googled it and there are 400 parks under the guidance of Seattle Parks and Recreation. And they are big and lush. Seattle isn’t called the Emerald City for nothing. With all that rain and Evergreen trees, it makes a beautiful green environment to live in. Now if only the sun could shine a bit more and I could be a very happy camper.
