Seattle--Ferry

We took a ferry to Seattle for a day.

You can just see Mount Rainier ever so faintly in the left side of the picture above. (Why is it so hard to photograph mountains?) We could see it clearly and it looked surreal--so beautiful and heavenly, floating on the clouds. (I think we saw it, too, as we were flying into Seattle: it was unbelievable--a mountain that felt like it was at the height of the airplane.)

My favorite part of ferries is the commuters in the women's bathroom: it's the seriously most social part of any public transportation I've ever seen--women curling their hair, putting on their make-up, and chatting as they get ready for the day.
