School ended on Wednesday.
We did not waste much time to start our summer festivities.
Friday morning we flew to Seattle, where we met rest of our family - grandparents, cousins, aunts and uncles.
Let the fun begin!
Sonic Bloom - Giant Solar Powered Singing Flowers.
Walk by the 40 foot high flowers and they react to you as well as to sunlight - motion sensors set off a chorus of harmonic tones.
Everybody else had come a day or two earlier to town. They were sightseeing, and we were waiting for them to come and meet us, and have dinner together.
Niko worked up a sweat to get up on this tail scuplture...
But he finally made it...and Maija got up with the help of others
Still waiting....
Cooling down...while waiting...
Niko asked to get his picture taken by former home of NBA's Seattle SuperSonics.
Once we got back...the waiting was over.
Now...let the FUN BEGIN!
