Busy weekend, didn't quite do what we expected, but we did do other things.
Saturday - generally wandered around. Got the car washed at the seminal Seattle landmark Elephant Car Wash. Then we had a walk around South Lake Union and had a look at the sales office there. Ouch. If somebody expects me to spend $1.6M on a flat I want a lot more property than they're offering. Finally we ended up in town and on the spur of the moment went to watch Harry Potter. It's not my favourite of the books, it's not my favourite film. No, audience, it didn't need a round of applause at the end - it wasn't that good.
Sunday - worked on getting the Media Center working. Mixed bag of results. The application to hook into iTunes works, but I'm getting poor performance playing the iTunes video. I'll have to play with that more. In the afternoon we were due around to friends to have home made sushi. Rory captains a vessel for pleasure trips and took us out to the pumping station for a short trip across Lake Union on the Schooner Mallory Todd. It was fun. Getting back to the car park and finding their car, with our sushi and my copy of Glasshouse in it, had been stolen, was not as much fun.
We ended up having Sushi in Wasabi in Belltown and then came back to ours to watch Goodness Gracious Me, which rounded off the evening nicely.
