Today i got talkin to a girl from near london called carly we decided to look around a bit and then we were going to meet Eric who id previously met in New Orleans. We first went accross the road to the ish market had a look round there bought some stuff in the comic store went to the first ever starbucks, yawn! And went to the chewing gum wall which id been told about previously, i dnt really understand it but its basically in a covered part and theres just chewing gum stuck all over the walls, ceiling it was kewl to see bit a bit frickin gross just full of other peoples spit and it smelt mingin still fun to see haha obviously added my own little mark. We decided to go to have some food Mcdonalds of course which was opposite the music museum thing so we went in there for an hour or so. Inside were exhibitions on nirvana of course and some other band maby led zeplin or summin i cant remember but as it wasnt the most fun genre for me anyway i wasnt greatly impressed altho i was by the massive cone in the middle made out of guitars, the greatest thing about it was there was a big hall with a massive projector with music videos playing with people walking in and out not paying much attention u know as you do, untill michael jackson thriller came on where people actually specifically came into the room to watch it and quite a crowd gathered, never under estimate the power of that one man guys. Anyway we went and got drenched again and met Eric off the bus, i think he expected New Orleans all over again bless him because he diddnt bring his car as he thought we were gonna go drinkin all day, unfortunately i was a bit skint and carly diddnt drink and the rain was full on pissing us off :( so we made him take us to where he lived with his brother 'bumblebee' car just lying to waste in the garden :,( he drove us to wal mart and i tried to see if id be able to take some shot gun pellets back on the plane but decided against it, we drove around a bit more and he seemed a but bored so dropped us off at the bus station to go back home, its gotta be hard entertaining in ur home town to people who arnt even from the same country, what seems every day and mundane to you is exciting for the tourists your tryna show around and realistically you just wanna go get drunk.
Carly and myself got back to the hostel, dried off obviously :/ had some tea and started talking to an australian computer wiz called steve and decided to play an exciting game of yatzee. I was not even slightly good at this game both of those had yatzee twice and three times and i still had none :( but as if by magic 3rd game i whacked out yatzee with 5's twice in a row....this was my next tattoo i could feel it.
Day 4 and as decided the night before we were gonna do the underground tour of seattle, it was ok summin about seatle was built 10 foot lower originaly but it kept flooding so they just moved everything up a storey was pretty interesting, then we went on to get my tattoo as promised i got a dice with 5 on it for my amazingly short yatzee streak :p super expensive as usual but hey ho. As id never seen a full sporting event the whole time id been here me, steve and carly went to a baseball game yey! Mariners vs someone else i decided i had to go all out! Candy floss game programme nachos, with the spiciest cheese ever! And a big fat juicy drink, it wasnt the red sox but mariners won so fun fun fun we also discussed steve renting a car the next day to drive around and see a little more yey!!! Also weather was good today for once thank god :)
Day 5 and as promised steve rented a car....a ford mustang convertable swit swoo only bad thing is it was 30 years too new ah well off we went to whatever the big mountain near seattle is called :p me in the front seat navigating and carly and niel (carly's friend who id also met in austin briefly) in the back seat freezing there t*** off as obviously we had the top down the entire time. We never managed to get to the mountain haha but we did see some amazing scenery about. When we got back we jumped on a boat to, some island i dnt know the name of, it was really pretty anyway and i managed to buy Tucker Max's new book which i couldnt get in the UK yet yey! That evening i was to head off on my marathon bus journey at around midnight/ 1am so got back to the hostel got my s*** out of storage said my goodbye's and trecked to the greyhoud station with my last and longest bus journey of my entire trip :( my dream trip was coming to an end this was not fun but gettin to see family and friends was gonna be exciting and my baby katie. Katie is not an actual baby shes my dog and she aswome by far the second best dog in the world! As obviously beethover in the best roll on 2 days sat on a bus.
