Second time to Seattle in so many months. This time we stayed at this quaint little house on Mercer Island, where my friends also live. I adore Mercer Island. It’s only 2 stops away from downtown Seattle, but it feels completely removed from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Unlike our most recent trip, we were able to spend some time with my friend and his family. Sean and I also got to visit Bruce and Brandon Lee’s graves at Lake View Cemetery, something we were not able to do on our last trip. To be fair, we crammed a lot in that trip: Cirque du Soleil show, 2Cellos concert and Star Wars exhibit at the EMP.
Some pics from our quick getaway:
I hadn’t been to Bruce and Brandon Lee’s graves since the early 90s, not long after Brandon Lee was killed, so the visit was way overdue. Sean had never been before, so I also wanted him to see it – Sean being such a big martial arts fan.
And even after all these years, there were still fans of all ages, coming to pay their respects. There were three people there when we arrived and another two that came while we were there. So if you ever go to Lake View Cemetery and are not sure where the lee’s final resting place is, just look towards the top of the hillside and they’ll most likely be fans already there.
Until next time, Seattle!
