We had waffles and lattes for the umpteenth time at the home of Blaise Aguera y Arcas, Adrienne Fairhall and their children, Eliot and Anselm.
We went to the Seattle Tennis Club with Josie and John Amory and their sons, William and Thomas, for a swim and supper - and ice cream.
We took the ferry to Vashon Island to hang with the fine Kellison-Straleys: Julia, Nick, Georgia and Oliver. Lucinda and Georgia are especially great pals.
We went up the Space Needle for the first time with Bill and Eileen Yardley and their children, Clara, Louisa and Jack D. (Bill is the Seattle Bureau Chief for the New York Times.) Arno is STILL talking about Clara, who held his hand as we walked along Queen Anne Blvd. (Apologies for the dark foto of the Yardley family.)
Without an official photographer present, we had a delicious dinner with Sam and Lisa Verhovek and Margaret Lane and Steven Caplow. This was a nice bookend to a goodbye party we attended in 2003, when we were fresh off the plane from NYC, in honor of Sam and Lisa's move to China for the Los Angeles Times.
And we had many playdates with, and attended a goodbye party for, Maryam Mohit, Erik Blachford and their children, Jake, Sedi Ann and Theo. They've just moved to San Francisco.
Don't forget us! We may well be back in Seattle in 2010 or 2011.

We love the pictures and are missing you guys. School starts tomorrow for Georgia and we're finding it difficult enough to navigate the Seattle school system. Can't imagine doing it in your situation, but you all seem to be handling it with great skill. (Not that we would expect anything less.) Give our best to B, L and A.
Love
Nick, Julia, Georgia and Oliver.
