The main reason for travelling to Seattle was to celebrate Flynn's fifth birthday and the occasion was everything we expected - excitement, loads of presents and a noisy party for some of his numerous friends from pre-school and the street in which he lives.
Presents stacked and ready to go!
The usual celebratory balloons.
Prezzie opening.
Observed by today's version of Horatio Nelson.
Flynn gets to work out how to use a new form of Nerf Gun, which is more like a bow and arrow. The 'bullets' lie scattered on the ground. I was fortunate he didn't 'get' me!
The usual Pokemon toys and games.
The cake arrives! Again, its design involves a Pokemon symbol.
Me and Flynn wearing our party hats.
One of his presents was, of all things, a crane which lifts objects, rotates them and locates them precisely.
And after his party, we all headed to Menchies nearby which serves luscious ice-cream in tubs with many different flavours / colours. One picks up a tub, fills it to whatever one's preferred depth and with the flavour(s) of choice, and then smothers the contents from a massive array of additions - chocolates, biscuits, sauces, fruits or whatever in any order or amounts. One takes the tub and its contents to the counter to be weighed. Price depends solely on weight and the delicious contents are highly desired by Flynn and Ella, not to forget the many friends who accompanied us.
Afterwards, the kids played hide and seek outside of Menchies with me supervising.
