Seattle and its usual self

It was so nice and warm for a couple of days and now Seattle is back to its usual gloomy weather. SUCKS! :( For a few days, we all thought winter is finally over and has stepped aside for spring, but we were wrong!
Seattle’s weather is too tricky to do any precise prediction. :)

I went up to Lynnwood on Sunday first to pay a visit to the temple, and secondly to visit a friend that just gave birth to a beautiful boy. Did I say the weather was nice on that day? :) Well, it must be because there was like 4000+ of ppl went to the temple on that day. We arrived at the parking lot at 11AM, and the parking lot was already 98% full and then patiently waited for 1hour and 15 min to finally get on the van for them to shuttle us to the temple. We were going to catch the Lion Dance show and watch the firecrackers but only manage to get to the temple half an hour after they were done with it. Bleh!

(The smoke from the incenses was thick and there is no way you could escape the smell/smoke even thought it was outdoors, vast sky. You could somewhat imagine how thick the smoke was from the picture above) 



 (More lanterns! :) I think the colorful lanterns give visitors a festive feeling.)



(This temple is one of the biggest temples in Seattle and only opens on special ceremonies. It was built by monks and lay people using design elements from Taiwanese and Vietnamese temples.)

We didn't get out of the temple until 2ish. The journey was longer than I anticipated haha. And, most of the time was spent on waiting in line. Waiting to get shuttle to the temple then waiting in line for our lunch then waiting again to get shuttle back to our cars haha.


(I went and picked some dried lavenders after I got back from the visitation. This thing smells so good and calming. :) I found this hidden treasure while I was out with a classmate to do some portrait pictures for my Photography class.)

 (I put some in the living room and some in the bathroom and now the living room smells full of lavender. :))
