Solstice 2009

We skipped last year and well this year wasn't so much different except for a little less foot traffic and not as many floats.

I was able to sit on a ledge this time and taking pictures was pretty fun as I did not have to try to shoot over people's head or get bumped into every few seconds.

Happy solstice. They predicted wet and rain and we had sun sun sun!

Marination

Danny said to check out the lunch truck. When we arrived there was a line already 10 deep. They were having issues with their iPhones and receipt printer. Can't go wrong w/ pencil and paper.
Was it worth the wait. Not really. From the website, I was expecting a taste of local flare but I really didn't get it. Prices were fine. But if you gonna do kim chi rice w/ fried egg and kalbi, i think you gotta go back to HNL and try what "real" kim chi fried rice taste like.

I was disappointed that the kalbi didn't have the char flavor I was expecting and the spicy pork was just average.

We had a great weekend thanks to Ivy's boss letting us stay at his vacation home near Chelan. We ate, ate, ate, and ate more.

We also went to visit a few wineries and had fun sipping wines and knowing absolutely NOTHING about them.

On our way home, we stopped by Leavenworth and had some really bland "German food". But we did enjoy a really yummy french crepe w/ hazelnut nougat and vanilla ice cream.

Next time, we need to rent a boat and water ski!
