I went "downtown" for a bit of shopping, where I got to sample 2 amazing sites; Nike City and the American food court.
Nike City is like Hamleys for athletes. You aren't allowed to buy any item without being fully satisfied with your purchase. Therefore they lay on all manor to shorting "arenas" for you to try out their products in; which is weird, since 99% of what the sell is clothing and footwear. Despite with, you could spend hours in there, even though a lot of it is geared towards American sports.
I went into one of the shopping malls to get some food when I discovered a calendar and boardgame shop, which sold no fewer than 40 different variations of monopoly, including 10 featuring individual breeds of dog. There was also a calendar entitled "England", even though 3 of the months featured locations north of the border.
The food court was epic. There were over 20 different food stalls, all of which had a different type of food. Weirdly, none of them were healthy, even though Seattle is renowned for being heath conscious.
I went home and went for a run. I'm off out to a colleagues leaving do tonight; the team is gradually downsizing as the flight testing draws to an end. Most are moving on to be RR reps with the airlines that are to receive 787's next year.
