Baseball matinee

This morning, we had to pack up and leave our little apartment. It was a great place to stay for a few days. Our host even brought us doughnuts this morning.
Front road seats
We went right down to the baseball park, but instead of going right in, we went for a walk around the Seattle waterfront for a while. We got some Starbucks coffee, but opted not to go to the first location with the giant lineup. It's not hard to find another!
Walking the stairs with Dad
The game today started at 12:40, so we brought in sandwiches for lunch and loaded up on the sunscreen. The game went to extra innings, so it was a long afternoon for the little ones. The Blue Jays ended up losing this one, but they won 2/3, which isn't bad.
Tuckered out
After the game, we parted ways with Aaryn, Stu and Evelyn. It was great to see them again and to meet baby Evelyn. Next time we see her, I'm sure she'll be running around and babbling. We ended up with one photo of the 6 of us at the baseball park. Unfortunately, Evelyn was fast asleep in the carrier.

Since the game went late, we were trying to leave the city right at rush hour. After waiting for 20 minutes just to get onto the on ramp, we decided to abandon ship to have Thai food and wait out the traffic.  Since all of Vancouver seemed to be at the game, traffic and the border crossing were still pretty bad when we did finally leave. Eventually, at about midnight, we made it to Aunt Pat's place in Vancouver.
