Posterous theme by Cory Watilo

I'm always chasing rainbows...

This morning we went to the Salish Lodge for brunch, followed by a viewing of the spectacular Snoqualmie Falls.
On the advice of several friends, we opted for the four course Country Breakfast, which is huge and decadent. It was great, especially the coffee service that includes little pots of chocolate shavings and whipped cream to add to your coffee. I could have done without the constant coaching from the waitstaff. Over and over again, they warned us to "save room" for the next course, and pointed out which courses not to fill up on. Enough already! Do I look like an amateur? Sheesh.
Next time we visit, I think we'll schedule our falls-viewing time before breakfast. By the time we finished all four courses, the falls viewing area was ascramble with tourists and families out for a Sunday adventure. A huge tour bus had belched out scads of people trying to get photos of the falls without getting wet. The spray from the falls was amazing, with huge rainbows suspended in the mist. Quite lovely and enchanting, even with a verrrry full tummy.
