Bombi in Seattle - edited highlights

We have so many fantastic photos (and memories!) from Seattle. A few are below, and you can see the rest here.

We spent 2 weeks with our wonderful hosts Natalie, Eitan and puppy Angel and kitty Diva. We went to the beach, bike-riding (including a fractured knee for Lou), up to the top of the Needle, to the Hendrix Museum, the Aquarium, lots of shopping, lots of scoffing (yummy Mexican food at Oaxaca and sushi were top of my list) and just hanging out and catching up with our buddies from London.

Bombi is a seasoned traveller by now, so managed to snooze both ways on the flight, although she did struggle a wee bit with the jetlag but we can't complain, she's such an easy baby to sling in the backpack and take globe trotting!

Godmother Niki, Godsister Lucia and little bro Jamie come to visit

Another lazy day - very hot today, so we went for lunch at the Plough. Maxime, Laura and Anais also came. It's Lucia's 7th birthday, so she came over to visit and pick up her birthday pressies. She also brought me some lovely flowers and fruit that her and Jamie had been picking at a farm in Enfield - yummy strawberries and blackberries. Bombi covered herself in strawberries (of course!).

Here's the gorgeous birthday girl Lucia:

Afterwards, we went home for some pondwatching and cooling off under the sprinkler!

Here's a lovely rainbow over our pond:

Coram's Fields with Annie and Lola

Annie and I went to Coram's Fields in Bloomsbury with Bombi and Lola. We took them in our Ergo slings on a couple of busses up to Russell Square. The girls loved playing in the sandpit, looking at the goats, and playing on the adventure squishy things, ball park and tunnels!

Here's Bombi practicing some juggling:

Afterwards, we popped into Liberation in Covent Garden to say hello to Fairy Godfather Hodgie, then we went next door for delicious sushi at Kulu Kulu. The girls tucked into rice, melon and avocado. Here's Bombi trying out her chopsticks!
