Seattle and the Sounders game

We went to Seattle to go do a bit of sightseeing and to go to the Sounders game. They were playing FC Barcelona on Aug. 5.

We stayed in a small Scandinavian style hotel - Ace Hotel on 1st Ave. It was actually really good for the location and price. We went to the Space Needle, the business centre, Pike Place market...and we stopped by the hotel where the Barcelona players stayed, so Klaus could see them, before we headed to Quest field for the game.

Enjoying a great game - even though Sounders lost. We kinda expected the outcome :-D
