Finally

We have been in Northwestern Washington for 4 days without a single offer of Starbucks...  And quite frankly, Ruby was getting tired of the wait.  Well, at long last at the very end of day 4, we ventured off alone to historic Seattle and found our way to the Pike Place Market and the ORIGINAL STARBUCKS!!!!

Well, the shop is tiny.  (I guess the demand wasn't so high in '71, and today there is just no where to sit.)  The line was out the door and the place was just a buzz with devotees paying homage.  You can see that Ruby is trying to garner some attention here as she has picked out the perfect mug for me to take home as a reminder of a truly perfectly made ToffeeNut Mocha.

Ahhhhh!
