I had an amazing weekend. My whole 4 days off were amazing. Lunch with my Twi-friend on Thursday, relaxing in jammies on Friday. Saturday I flew to Seattle to meet up with an old friend. He decided to pamper me for the whole time I was there. He picked me up at the airport and we went to a little hole in the wall restaurant for lunch called Txori. YUM!!! It was a little Spanish place. Not Mexican. Phenomenal food.
From there I did something I've never done. I got a facial!!! Great little spa in Belltown. If you are in or around Seattle go check out Spa Noir. Found the most amazing skin products ever!!! Will most definitely be purchasing them.
I was surprised at where I was staying. He reserved a king room at The Edgewater for me. Talk about a nice place!!! Another highly recommended place to go.
Dinner was at a place I had never heard of. He took me to Palisade. He had told them it was my birthday so when we got there we had rose petals scattered on the table. Dinner was fabulous and the view, even though it was cloudy, was wonderful. Don't get me started on the pomegranate cosmo. Yummy!!!
Once dinner was over it was time to head to Key Arena for the very reason I went to Seattle. Michael Buble. I cannot even begin to say how fabulously fabulous the concert was. His opening act was "Naturally 7". They have no instruments other than their voices. Check them out...
I was in awe while watching them. Oh...I was in the 3rd row watching them. ;) Yes...I would be jealous too. LOL
After a brief intermission, this man came on stage...
I can safely say that any time he is in concert within driving distance I will be going. Holy crow that man can put on a show. He was "insert a lot of superlatives here". While he was singing the above song he was on the side of the stage where we were sitting. He was singing and looked right at me. Well...I thought he was but just to be sure I smiled really big and guess what? He smiled right back!!! Yes...I became a puddle at that moment. Michael Buble' smiled at me! *sigh* I love Michael Buble. Seriously though...the concert was fabulous and definitely worth seeing again.
Yesterday was spent walking around Pike Place Market and the waterfront. It was really too cold to enjoy much. I did get my photo taken with the Easter clam outside of Ivar's though. ;)
A great birthday and I truly hope that all of my birthdays from here on out are just as much fun.
