My wife and I brought the kids to Seattle for vacation. Very nice ride out in a DAL B739ER. Much impressed with that aircraft. Hitting some of the usual tourist spots today. Hand another tourist your phone gets you this…
Beecher’s for lunch because mom and dad like the mac and cheese, and the kids love grilled cheese.

myself and @Tyco had some pretty good schnitzel and beer in the German restaurant about three doors the right last September.

Was that the little replica bier stube over in the market? When we passed, it was all that I could do to suppress a Pavlovian response.

that’d be the one!
That’s a superb shot Chris.
Did you see any hobbits strolling around with a ring by any chance? I mean, not asking for myself… For a friend…
Jealous of that location…that is a dream trip of mine…have you ever gotten to fly over the Milford Sound with the tourist planes?

Now you’ve confused me, Chipwich. I distinctly remember a photo on SimHQ, oh, years back, in the motorsport section (when it was still with the main forum) of a guy walking through a pitlane - might have been Indy but maybe not - and I have always thought it was you. So every time I read your posts, I sort of imagined that guy was doing the talking - but now I see I was very much mistaken.
That guy looked like he regularly pumped iron - know what I mean (no offence 
). Maybe it was W-K…

Ha! That was probably the GP at Indy in 2002 as guests of Ferrari (another story). So 15 years ago and pre marriage, kids, etc. Now, I barely have time to check the results

Right! 
I actually wondered about that, after I posted - sorry, man!

Brought back some good memories.
Ferrari mission control. Flight director was Jean Todt in those days.
With my brother in the Ferrari pit post qually.
Michael and Rubens celebrating another 1-2 finish.
Schumi chats it up afterward. Better days.

No Hobbit sightings, but if they are out there then this is where they are likely to be…

You really must get down there Chris. The scenery is stunning. Having read your recent article in PC Pilot about Milford Sound, I really must do that if I get to visit again.
I’m back in the States now after an 11 and a half hour airline flight from Auckland the SFO. Just one more hop to home. This was my shortest visit to NZ, just two nights. Not much time for sight seeing this time.

Yeah…I’m definitely going to take the tourist flight to Milford Sound whenever I get there…
Oh…I learned it was just Team Oracle scuttling their boat…
