Seattle Day 2

With the exception of dinner plans with Van's family (mom's side), we again had nothing to do but stroll the streets and shop. We had pho (Vietnamese noodle soup) for lunch, then proceeded to two of our favorite stores, REI and Fran's (yet another two businesses originating in Seattle).

A brief detour to Meydenbauer Beach Park in Bellevue between REI and Fran's....
Van's uncle's house in Renton, WA.
Notice the child-height, foam pads along the walls of their giant playpen aka living room. There's no question who's running the show in this house.....
Van's uncle cooked a fabulous meal featuring no less than 10 crabs, tons of steaks, and roasted veggies. Yumm....On the right is Van's uncle, the chef for the evening....Van's youngest cousin, Tammy....Emily, the future pro athlete....Van with Serena and Micheal (yes, that's how he really spells it)....
