Kirkland to Portland

 We had our morning breakfast and then did all the things we needed to do to check out of the apartment.  We were supposed to be out of there by 10 am.  It was a nice Airbnb but it did have some problems.  I would not be against staying there again if we find the need.  It was a great location.  

Just as we were leaving the apartment to head over to Madeline and Roman's place, it started snowing.  

We thought it would be good to go on a morning walk in the snow.  We got all bundled up.  We thought that maybe Ivan would want to play in the snow but he preferred to stay in the stroller.  

Not much snow but Nathan found enough to make a snowman.

We walked along the Kirkland Corridor,  It is a 5.75 mile trail.  We only walked a short portion of it.  We were a little chilly.  It was pretty.

We had some nice hot chocolate when we got back and then played a game of 10, 9, 8. Dorothy liked both 10, 9, 8 and Swoop.  

We walked to George's Restaurant in Kirkland.  We picked it because of the name. It had good reviews. We had seen it yesterday when we walked back from the lake.

Nathan had the Salmon Benedict

I had the California Benedict. yummy!!

Ivan wanted what Roman had.

They did not give us any discount.

After we got back from lunch we said our good-byes and headed out to drive home. It was 1:30 pm

Nathan's snowman did not last long.  

It was sprinkling most of the drive south.  Miserable driving weather but at least it wasn't icy or snowing.

We got home about 5:15 pm.  Nathan collected all of his stuff and headed back to his apartment.  I think that he had probably had enough family time.  

It was great to see so many of the family.
