No Picture Associated With These Comments
The clouds in British Columbia had character, making quite a skyscape. Sadly, I didn't stop to take a picture, and by the time I did stop, in Washington state, the clouds were less cool.
Lake Padden

A very green forest.

Pike Place Market (Seattle)
Market Grill, the counter from which I bought the first part of my lunch.
Clam chowder: creamy.  There's not many clams, but that's sadly typical
of clam chowder.  Has potato chunks.  Bread: fresh, and better
than what normally comes with soup.
The Confectional, from which I bought dessert.
Many varieties of cheesecakes and truffles.  The labels are
legible in the full-sized image.

Dessert: a classic cheesecake.  It's a good size for a personal serving. 
I only discovered the hard graham cracker crust when I peeled the paper
off the cake and saw it.  Until then, I assumed my plastic fork was
hitting the plate.
An epinard (pastry filled with spinach) from Le Panier.  I previously had some of
their other
tarts.  I carried it on the flight back to California and had
it for dinner at home.
A sauerkraut, cabbage, onion, and carrot piroshky from Piroshky Piroshky. I
previously ate some of their other piroshkies.
