Anniversary
We were married 24 years ago today at the Olympic Hotel in downtown Seattle. Our ceremony was in the Kensington Room, a small function room on the balcony level just above the hotel reception desk. We then had dinner in another small room around the bend and up some stairs. Sometimes we return to the Olympic to celebrate our anniversary, having dinner in the Georgian Room, their main restaurant. There’s not a more elegant restaurant in the city. But the Georgian Room isn’t open on Sundays and Mondays, so some years it isn’t an option. This year it is, and in three hours we’ll be eating there for the first time in five years.
I can’t wait, all the more because it will provide a wonderful break from our diet, which is in week four now. Five years ago we were on the same diet, having started it on May 3rd that year, and we didn’t depart from the diet until our anniversary. Dessert never tasted so good.
More perhaps in a later post. Congratulations to us!
