Who can make it to Trader Vic's Bellevue on Friday around noon? I was thinking we'll just drop in without a reservation and stay in the bar, but I don't know how crowded it will be. Methinks they probably are packed in the restaurant for lunch since it's probably a popular place for business lunches. If I have an idea of who can make it I will call the restaurant.
Can't wait to SEEattle again! Even if it's way too brief a visit.

I get in before KTR, and he gets in at 10:45, so we should be getting to Vic's around noon. I have directions from airport to Vic's - it's about 23 miles.

The weather forecast is for NO RAIN! Well, maybe a bit on Friday but it's supposed to be sunny this weekend.
I spent several days of January in Seattle a few years ago and it didn't rain. I also went there in 1990 and it didn't rain. I've been to Portland in the winter and it didn't rain, although it rained the first night of the NW Tiki Crawl last June (?).
Lucky, or what?
Not that I mind rain, I even like it sometimes (like in Hawaii or Florida). We've had a lot of rain this month here.

Both Selector Lopaka and I are hoping to join you at Trader Vic's on Friday, though we're not yet sure what the day will bring for either one of us work-wise ( I'll know tomorrow, Lopaka will know on Friday morning). So we might have to play it by ear... we'll do our best, though ! We're definitely in for pre-show festivities. And breakfast on Saturday, if you have time.

I called Trader Vic's and they said they don't take reservations for the lounge, so we'll head straight there from the airport and try to snag a table. See you tomorrow!
