Drechsel Family Field Trip #3

I know, I know!  You totally want to be a Drechsel so that you can go on our awesome family field trips, don't you?  ; )  Yesterday we had dinner plans in Seattle with Chris' oldest friend to celebrate his birthday.  Mike lives in Minnesota now (and has acquired a slight midwestern accent after 10 years), but his family threw him a party here.  Anyway...I digress.  So we had these plans in the evening and decided to head up early and hit the waterfront, we wanted to take Camden to Ye Olde Curiosity Shop so he could see things like mummies and shrunken heads.  (Because, you know, he's not having enough nightmares as it is).  It was a beautiful day, sunny, but coldish.  After we perused the piers for a couple of hours we went to Queen Anne to browse the aisles at Easy Street Records.  I came home with Billy Joel's Greatest Hits (because I have been craving some Billy Joel lately), and Chris got the newest Superchunk.  Enjoy some photos from our fun day.:
