Live from Seattle

I'm blogging live from the Seattle Central Library. This is quite a structure. The building is really a work of art, all steel and glass, books and computers. There are 11 floors of knowledge and learning here. We've been walking around this fair city, and under this city, for a few days now and I think we get a good sense of Seattle. Except the weather. Everyone keeps remarking about this "amazing stretch" of weather - it's been sunny and warm for the three days we've been here. I kind of feel like we are missing something without the rain. I'm not complaining, though! We're going through lots of sunscreen.
