Saturday: Olympia

We started the day with scones made by Sam. These scones are the best!

We then drove to Olympia, the capital of Washington. We strolled through the Farmer's Market (open year round) sampling Mead, seasoned pumpkin seeds, caramels, jam.

We then walked to the Capitol building where the cherry trees were in full bloom. As we walked through the Capitol building, we learned the Senate was in session. While they were on a 30 minute break, we entered the balcony viewing area to see the inside of the Senate chambers.

We then walked around downtown Olympia checking out book stores, a game store, qnd a chocolate and tea store. Lunch was at Rush In Dumplings, a tiny restaurant with kitchen/ordering area on the 1st floor and seating on the 2nd floor.

Back at Cianna & Sam's house, we enjoyed Sam's lasagna soup. We hung out for the evening by playing Wingsoan and watching old episodes of Who Do You Think You Are.Read more
