Learning the Ropes

We've been in Seattle for exactly one week, as of yesterday.  In that short amount of time, I've learned some new rules of the "road"/life here in Seattle:

1) Do not jaywalk - they give out tickets - so I need to learn to be patient and wait for the walk sign to illuminate and I need to find the crosswalk
2) Do not use an umbrella - I guess true Seattleites don't use umbrellas.  I picked up the dry cleaning down the street from us and I used an umbrella.  I don't care.  I'm not going to let the rain ruin my fresh shirts!
3) People are exceptionally friendly on the road here - they slow down and let you merge, they don't honk their horns, they don't drive through yellow/red lights - it is actually quite lovely!

I wonder what else I'll learn in the coming weeks.  So far, so good!!

It's kind of fun to be back in a state where we can experience Autumn and the change of seasons.  I'm loving it!!!

If you live in the Seattle area, are there any really amazing restaurants we should try?!
