The marathon alone brought in 25,000 runners, not to mention their friends, family and supporters.
Shuttle drivers told us there were three or four cruise ships in port, adding even more people to the fray.
Then, Sunday, when we woke up and went out in search of breakfast, Mitzi and I found the staging area for the Seattle Pride Parade - right outside the front doors of our hotel.
It was a nice distraction for us as we walked along trying to loosen up our tired legs. After we had breakfast, I went back and got Adam, and he and I walked along the route for a while. The parade started 11, and when we were waiting for our airport shuttle at 1 p.m., it was still going strong!
Adam took a bunch of photos. I was playing with the flip camera, so no stills for me.
The floats and parade walkers were pretty amazing and intricate.
We thought maybe we found a girlfriend for Minnie...It was cool to see all of the support for the gay community - there were TONS of people at the parade.
