Our City Tour on November 29th

a less foggy day before Marathon day

After our tour, we meet my running partner, Willerie, for some "carbo loading" at an Italian restaurant.  The seafood
linguini was simply delicious.  Wish I could have had some wine with it but shucks, not the evening before the marathon.

 

 

 

 

 

 

It's Willerie's favorite Seattle Italian restaurant.

 

 

Back at the Westin, glass art is everywhere at the lobby area
