Just arrived in the Seattle - Westin Hotel, I'm on Level 41, the view is great. It's a bright sunny arvo here and the port is glittering as I typed.

Here are some fresh pictures taken less than 1 hour ago.

Ahh .. the Space Needle ... too bad I couldn't get a picture of Amazon.com and Starbucks HQs while I was on the freeway. The bus was going too fast :)

The port view from the Westin 41st floor.

Planes is the theme in the Seatac Airport. There is a giant mobile taken from the Arrival Hall.

Excuse me, I need to get my latte fix ... hey! I'm in Seattle, home to Starbucks .. what do you expect. To be honest, I think there are many similiarities between Seattle and Melbourne ... more later ...after my coffee.
