Bridges through Windows

 

  Can you tell I'm excited?    I've actually done two entries in one day...it's been awhile for sure since that has happened. 

This entry is about seeing bridges through windows..restaurent windows to be exact.  One of my favorite restaurents here in Seattle is Chinook's by the Ballard Bridge just past downtown Seattle.  As you can see the Bridge is open most likely for a sailboat.  The marina you can see is Fisherman's Terminal and holds many boats.  You can take a walk after you eat on the wharf to see all the boats and imagine what it must be like to be a fisherman. 

The second picture is looking outside the window from Joey's an upscale but nice restaurent bar at the south end of Lake Union in Seattle..right downtown.  The bridge you see through the window is the Aurora Avenue bridge.  It is an interesting bridge...underneath it a famous troll on the north end.  A sculpture big enough to dwarf a volkswagon bug which it holds in it's hand...will have to get a picture of that one later.  It's one of the two main north/south routes through Seattle...and ta da....my husband worked on earthquake proofing it a few years back.

I love to look through windows.  Bridges have always fascinated me.  Symbolically a bridge helps you get across something difficult..a wide chasm or a body of water.  Many bridges are a marvel of humankind.  I like the peaceful ones too.  Although you probably go to a restaurent to just eat and maybe visit...take the opportunity to look out the window..you will never know what you will see.
