Dreaming of Seattle Latte

I've neglected a Seattle recap from our trip last week, and since I'm about to walk out the door tonight, I can't write much. I've just been thinking about all the latte I drank there. It was so wonderful.

My friend E, who is quite the coffee connoisseur sent me a list of the best and I got to try 2 of the 3. The morning I had to take Kelvin to the conference center to be there at 7, I found my way to Victrola after dropping him off. There was a parking spot directly in front of the place and only one other person who was leaving as I went in. After ordering my latte and a scone I retreated to the pew style bench that lines one wall. I played with my iPhone and watched as the addicted came in for their morning hit. The sun finally came up as I was finishing my drip refill. It was such a great way to start my morning.

Then the last day we were in Seattle I persuaded Kelvin to go with me to the REI store and to check out Vivace. It was close to our hotel and we stopped in for an after lunch caffeine and hot chocolate refueling. I had an amazing latte with white chocolate added in the milk. I will never be the same.
