We walked to California Ave. yesterday and watched some of the West Seattle Hi-Yu parade. It is pretty much the same from year to year, and this is the fun of it. There are new young Chinese girls, but their beautiful costumes haven't changed in the 25 years we've been watching the parade. Sea-Fair begins next week in Seattle and there is a much bigger and very popular torchlight parade downtown. I've never seen it, due to the hassle of getting there and back with thousands of other people. There is something nice and lazy about dragging your lawn chair out, then sitting back and enjoying a familiar old parade. We always reminisce about little Amanda hiding behind the
mailbox when the Sea-Fair pirates showed up!
